[net.space] George Orwell quote

@S1-A.ARPA,@MIT-MC.ARPA:DOLANTP@USC-ISI.ARPA (07/26/85)

From: DOLANTP@USC-ISI.ARPA

Knowing what a well-read group this is, can anyone refer me to the origin of
the Orwell quote,

	"He who controls the present, controls the past;
	 he who controls the past, controls the future."

If you have a book, edition, and chapter, it would help my thesis a lot.  
Thanks much.

It's from the book, ``1984''. I'm not sure that it actually occurs
within the story, but may appear on one of the pages preceding the text.

The quote obviously comes from "1984" I'm afraid I don't have a chapter
or page number though.
