All things that happen in our mind truly happen.

"All happenings are in the mind. Whatever happens in all minds, truly happens."

 -George Orwell (1984, Part III, Chapter 4, Pg. 351)

So at the moment, I am reading chapter 4 in part III and i came across this quote on page 351. Winston is starting to think about why he rebelled in the first place. He is also thinking about how O'Brien said "...I could float off this floor like a soap bubble" which made Winston to believe, and i quote, "If he THINKS he floats off the floor, and if i simultaneously THINK I see him do it, then the thing happens." This is where the quote comes in to play. Winston has all of this going through his mind and now he believes that whatever happens in your mind, really happens. It is just crazy how such a simple quote could have someone thinking so much.

This quote makes me think about daydreaming and dreams. If they were actually happening because we think it, then they would apply to this quote and then the impossible would become possible... It is weird how when you actually start thinking of quotes and their meanings you begin to wonder what was going through someone's mind when they said the quote. I know i always wonder what is going on in a persons mind that made them say something. I feel as though every quote has a deeper meaning than what it says. It just requires more thinking and understanding than just knowing what the quote means from context clue or even by who said it. there's more to quotes than you think.
