That quote is often attributed to Orwell, but no-one seems to know when or where he said it. http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/List_of_misquotations http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070529213021AAe9Hqo

Thanks for the clarification. That was originally a Memorial Day tweet. I later discovered that the attribution could be wrong, but twitter has limited facility for correcting old tweets.
