Quote #1: “They were standing in the shade of hazel bushes. The sunlight, filtering through innumerable leaves, was still hot on their faces” (Orwell 132).
Quote #2: “ The air seemed to kiss one’s skin. It was the second of May. From somewhere deeper in the heart of the wood came the droning of ring doves” (Orwell 126).

Quote #4:” They were passing in silence down a side-street (Julia would never speak when they were away from the main streets) when there was a deafening roar, the earth heaved, and the air darkened, and Winston found himself lying on his side, bruised and terrified.

Emotional Setting Quotations
Quote #5: “They were only making conversation. He had managed to move closer to her now. She stood before him very upright, with a smile on her face that looked faintly ironical, as though she were wondering why he was so slow to act. The bluebells had cascaded on to the ground. They seemed to have fallen of their own accord. He took her hand” (Orwell 128).
Quote #6: “They were both breathing fast, but the smile had reappeared round the corners of her mouth. She stood looking at him for an instant, then felt at the zipper of her overalls. And, yes! it was almost as in his dream” (Orwell 133-134).
