What is Room 101?
1.
The room where the Ministry of Loveinflicts its worst torture - subjecting you to whatever you fear the most, in George Orwell's
"Do anything to me! You've been starving me for weeks. Finish it off and let me die here. Shoot me. Hang me. Sentence me to tenty-five years. Is there somebody else you want me to give away? Just say who it is and I'll tell you anything you want. I don't care who it is or what you do to them. I've got a wife and three children. The biggest of them isn't six years old. You can take the whole lot of them and cut their throats in front of my eyes, and I'll stand by and watch it. But not room 101!"
- the skull-faced man, 1984
