- All are paradoxes: the Ministry of Truth alters the truth; the Ministry of Love tortures people; the Ministry of Peace plans wars; the Ministry of Plenty lies because rations are always scarce. The buildings help suppress free thought or speech.
- Big Brother represents the power of the Party and the pinnacle of the propaganda machine. It is unclear whether he exists; he doesn't age and readers know what occurs at the Ministry of Truth. He is plastered all over Oceania, a constant reminder that “Big Brother is Watching You”.
- Goldstein’s book represents hope, a way to revolutionize and overthrow the government. Winston believes the book is the key to solving their predicament.
- Room 101 holds everyone’s deepest fear and is where people's spirits are broken. It is there that Winston gives up his private loyalties, and dedicates himself fully to Big Brother. Room 101 represents the complete loss of free thought and speech.
