Boxer: boxer is a very large, and very strong plough horse, he did much of the work on the windmill, he is also determined and loyal. He gets up earlier than all the other animals to work, his strength and determination inspires all of the other animals to work, his motto, "I will work harder!" really coveys how he feels about working. He is also very loyal to who ever the leader happens to be, however he is not very bright as although his second motto "napoleon is always right" definetly shows his loyalty, it also show that napoleon is easily exploiting him as a result of his lower intelligence. Boxer was later removed from the farm and taken away to be slaughtered.

"No animal shall kill any other animal without cause." Napoleon decided to change the seven commandments and is being shaped to become a human. Napoleon wasn't keen on humans at the start but slowly drifts from changing the commandments and giving speeches about how the pigs have more authority than any other animal in the farm.

The old commandment before Napoleon changed it was "all animals are equal" but after Napoleon changes it, becomes "all animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.

Napoleons revolution had changed dramatically as he starts to walk on to legs inter reacts with humans drinking, sleeping in beds, playing card games and arguing. "With all the animals staring out side the window " having an idea of what is happening and then Napoleon changes the farm back to Manor Farm and then the animals no what they are in for!

"There was nothing worth reading" (chapter 4) 

"Fools! Fools!""fools! Do you not see what was written on the side of that van." (Chapter 9)

"Why then do we continue in this miserable condition? Because nearly the hole of the produce of our labour is stolen from us by humans" (chapter 6)

"Remember comrades, remember your resolution must never falter. No argument must lead you astray. Never listen when they tell you that man and the animals have a common interest." (Chapter 6) 

"We had thought that Snowballs rebellion was caused simply by his vanity and ambition. But we were wrong, comrades. Do you know what the real reason was? Snowball was in league with Jones from the very start! He was Jones's secret agent all the time."

He's very persuasive. He gets a large majority of food compared to the other animals.

'Squealer was so fat he could with difficulty see out of his eyes.'

'Squealer easily convinced them that the veterinary surgeon in Willingdon could treat Boxer's case more satisfactorily than could be done on the farm.'

"Mollie become more and more troublesome. She was late for work every morning"

Clover: She is Boxer's close friend, she suspects the pigs are violating some of the seven commandments, she isn't able to read or write so she can't express herself, but still gets angry at herself for not remembering them. She also tries to stop Mollie from having contact with other people.

"[to clover] do you give me your word of honour that that man was not stroking your nose?"

A tame raven that is Mr. Jones’s “especial pet.” He is a spy, a gossip, and a “clever talker” (37). He is also the only animal not present for Old Major’s meeting. Moses gets in the way of the pigs’ efforts to spread Animalism by inventing a story about an animal heaven called Sugarcandy Mountain. Moses disappears for several years during Napoleon’s rule. When he returns, he still insists on the existence of Sugarcandy Mountain.  Moses represents religion , which gives people hope of a better life in heaven. His name connects to Judeo-Christian religions specifically , but he can be said to represent the spiritual alternitave in general. The pigs dislike Moses's stories of sugercandy mountain , just as the soviet government opposed religion , not wanting its people to subscribe to a system to belief outside of communism. Through the soviet government suppressed religion aggressively , the pigs on Animal farm let moses come and go and as he pleases and ev

"Nine enormous dogs wearing brass-studded collars came bounding into the barn. They dashed straight for Snowball, who only sprang from his place just in time to escape their snapping jaws."

"He ordered the hens' rations to be stopped, and decreed that any animal giving so much as a grain of corn to a hen should be punished by death. The dogs saw to it that these orders were carried out" 

"Napoleon, with his dogs following him, now mounted on to the raised portion of the floor wher Major had previously stood to deliver his speech" 

Boxer and Clover "having once accepted the pigs as their teachers, they absorbed everything that they were told, and passed it on to the other animals by simple arguments" p.18

Boxer "He had been a hard worker even in Jones' time, but now he seemed more like three horses than one" p.29

Squealer's propaganda "surely there is no one among you who wants to see Jones come back?" justifying decision to keep apples and milk for the pigs.

Snowball and Napoleon "These two disagreed at every point where disagreement was possible" p. 47

What do you think George Orwell is arguing about the nature of equality?

Can it be achieved?
