Both authors show that power can be obtained in many different ways and can be used to corrupt or build up others, depending on how we use our power. Language is power. Without language, a person might not gain power. By the use of language, we can influence, direct, oppress, and manipulate others. Animal Farm discusses on how power is obtained through language and its correlation with education, class structure, and human nature. Some of the animals in the farm are more educated and literate than others, and this creates a class division among them. The smarter ones, such as the pigs, are considered as the higher-class animals and the less educated ones, such as the horses, are considered as the lower-class animals.
