Perfection For as long as humans have existed, people have been striving for perfection in all aspects of their lives. A major focus for many of them is establishing a community in which everyone lives in harmony. Since individuals are so diverse, no two people have the same idea of what would constitute as a flawless society. This theme is portrayed in both literature and genuine places.

Despite the Herculean efforts made by the animals, they suffer from a shortage in food (Orwell 67). Rations are constantly being reduced, just like on Brook Farm (Orwell 81; Delano 109).
