Who is John Galt?
My father handed off Atlas Shrugged to me when I was 14. It changed my life and continues to be one of my all-time favorites.
“What is morality, she asked.
Judgement to distinguish right and wrong, vision to see the truth, and courage to act upon it, dedication to that which is good, integrity to stand by the good at any price. ”
― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
I have read The Fountainhead many times as well. Good stuff!
But there are people who'll try to hurt you through the good they see in you--knowing that it's the good, needing it and punishing you for it. Don't let it break you when you discover that.”
― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
“I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.”
― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
I have always tried to live my life in such a way ... that John Galt would come for me ... as he was stopping the motor of the world.
Happy Birthday!
Ha, yes! Awesome quotes! I loved that book too, I think if it were the one given to me at that pivotal time it would be my favorite ;)
Between my musings and now yours, I think I have to read them both again!
Thank you :)
