taken out of context, the quote's meaning is hard to dtermine with certainty.  my take is that without knowledge, people cannot "stand up" for their rights or values.\n\nin relation to bush, i guess you could say that since he has cut education spending so much, he will create a population of "empty bags" who will be easy to manipulate

You are upsetting me.  I have searched all of Orwell's works with that quote and no source is turning up, just that it is a quote attributed to Orwell.  I have read 1984 several times, and this quote is ringing all kinds of bells.  It has to be from that book.  I will keep looking for it.  It is personal now.\n\nGot it...\n"The Collected Essays, Journalism and Letters of George Orwell" Volume 4, page 51

I think that this is probably a variation on a quote that I have heard attributed to Mark Twain and Abe Lincoln. I found it also credited to Samuel Johnson. Samuel Johnson died before Abe and Twain were born, so I give him credit. The quote is as follows...."It is better to remain silent and thought a fool, than open one's mouth and remove all doubt."\n\nIn other words....keep em guessing.

Pretty much the quote states that even the more powerful people in the world make mistakes and aren't always correct in their ways of solving problems.  And that a truly good person would be able to see that they're way isn't the right way and will allow other solutions to the problem, as long as the problem gets resolved peacefully.  And that the worst thing a person can do is be too proud to take someone else's advice.  In Antigone, her father I believe (it's been a while since I read this) is so set in his ways and believing he's right, that he won't see things from Antigone's point of view.  Due to his pride, it results in his daughter's death (I'm pretty sure she dies in this), which is not an affective solution to the problem.  I'm sorry I can't remember quotes and things of that sort.  But I hope I put you on the right track!  Good luck!
