While O'Brien is essential to the story, he only has a small part in it, mostly centred around Room 101.
Skim over the time Julia and Winston spend at O'Brien's house - that's where he convinces them to join the Brotherhood and where the moral ambiguity starts. He gets W&J to agree to kill, maim and torture for their own ends, while later on, O'Brien turns that back on Winston in Room 101.
Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

Check thread Room 101 on the top of the page; it will be much clearer to you.
Shortly, he denies love for Julia and that's BB's win over him.
At thunder and tempest, At the world's coldheartedness,
During times of heavy loss And when you're sad
The greatest art on earth Is to seem uncomplicatedly gay.
To get things clear, they have to firstly be very unclear. But if you get them too quickly, you probably got them wrong.

Not at all - O'Brien's easy. His morality only extends to the needs of the Party; he has subjugated himself to nothing more than a piece of the Party machine itself.
Just compare his [lack of] morality to that of Winston, who believes that his morality is absolute until they strap on the rat cage.

If it seems a good idea to you, it probably is. The better you understand the subject, the better you'll write on it.
They're so easy, I'll spot you a couple. Your page numbers will be different.
Chapter 1, 6th paragraph: "Winston turned his back to the telescreen..." That's the first inkling that he's trying to reduce the power the Party has over him.
Chapter 1 again, towards the end: "DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER" Pretty self-explanatory.
Chapter 4, 8th paragraph: "But actually, he thought as he adjusted the Ministry of Plenty's figures..." Here, Winston is learning about the manipulation of facts to enhance/preserve power.
His relationship with Julia is another place to find plenty of good bits for that.
You ain't seen the bill yet!
