" He had the feeling that O'Brien was his protector, that the pain was something that came from outside, from some other source, and that it was O' Brien who would save him from it" (25
I feel like what the party is trying to teach Winston how to doublethink as an impulse. O'Brien does not want him to think about anything that he knew before but just accepts. Like when he was talking about what two plus two equals. First he says it equals four and when the party says it equals 5 so it wiil equal five. The Ministry of Love is just a place to teach people to think like the party. First they will break all the individual's foundation and rebuilt them as a hallow person. A person with no thoughts of their own and a person whose spirit has been broken forever. The person who walked from the Ministry of Love is dead when they come out.
Anew- in a new way or form that is unlike the previous one.
Respite- a brief period of rest and recovery between periods of exertion or after something disagreeable
