After watching Animal Farm, the first impression is what kind of government is produced by what kind of people. Thomas Jefferson and the Declaration of Independence are often mentioned in American Presidential speeches. Somewhat ironically, Jefferson himself was a landlord, a slave and a servant, so how could he have written the words that all men are created equal? How could the founding fathers of the United States design a democratic system that has influenced the United States to this day? Why didn't they become pigs? Look at some countries, people like cattle and sheep will always have a government like pigs. No amount of revolution can bring about a fair and democratic system

    Is the human race worth saving if we're nothing more than slaves to each other?

    Just stop in the original book and see the pig as an adult. Why add such a superfluous ending, and it has changed from a political fable to a tool of political struggle. The fooling method is so lazy, do you think the audience will really believe that the external forces will be able to long live the revoluuuuuuution after intervening and guiding it? 15.4.19 @China Film Archive

Animal Farm quotes

  • Napoleon: Loyal followers, on farms owned and operated by pigs, there is order and discipline. Own lower animals do more work and eat less than other on farms.

    [gives medals]

    Napoleon: With this, we encourage you to make your lower animals work even harder and eat even less! To a greater Animal Farm! For peace and plenty under pig rule!

    [Benjamin, outside imagines Napoleon's face assimilating that of Jones; he suddenly sees through the resemblance]

    Napoleon: To the day when pigs own and operate farms EVERYWHERE!

    [applause]

  • Narration Spoken by: And that night the pigs drank to Boxer's memory, in the whisky they had bought with Boxer's life.
