Animal Farm !

Powering Tyranny : 
     Tyranny is when a government where only one ruler holds all the power.Having a good conscience is when your conscience is free of guilt or shame. The quote "All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent "  means that as the government is easily taking over the citizens , without their opinion before a decision. just like the pigs try to outsmart all the other animals and make it seem as if they are benefiting all of the other animals .
Striking Fear:
       The quote “He who strikes terror into others is himself in continual fear " means that if you fear others , you must fear yourself and everything around you . As the animals feared Mr.Jones and his bad treatment , they haven't noticed that Napoleon is treating them the same way . They only fear what they want to fear ! In the book Animal Farm , Napoleon is in fear even though he might not recognize it himself. he is not being original and is stealing all of snowballs good ideas to win the animals trust . He is afraid to loose his position of power.
Becoming the Enemy :
          The quote "If we behave like those on the other side, then we ARE the other side. Instead of changing the world, all we'll achieve is a reflection of the one we want to destroy " means , that those who we agree with and surround us are those who will control us. As the animals agreed with the laws and commandments, they had to live with them even though they didn't like them. The pigs changed the laws to better themselves. Without caring about the benefits of the other animals ,the pigs were skeeming to make their lives better !
