“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others,”(118). In this case, George Orwell is using the phrase “more equal” to show how leaders twist words to manipulate the population.

Throughout the allegorical, Animal Farm, the author’s use of particular characters to represent real life political figures is admirable. A debate could be started discussing the significance of a character and their contribution to the overall essence of the novel.

This character, as portrayed by George Orwell, is seen repeatedly handling the relations between the animals without political authority and the “leader”, “the father of all animals”, Napoleon.…
"The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which" (Orwell 141).

However, no matter what the benefits of animal experimentation are, the tests conducted on the animals are cruel.…

The E.P.A. recommends that individuals reduce their dependence of energy come from fossil fuels but new studies are now showing that the fact is that our incredibly immense practice of…
