“Joy is the goal of existence, and joy is not to be stumbled upon, but to be achieved, and the act of treason is to let its vision drown in the swamp of the moment’s torture.”
― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
“Run for your life from any man who tells you that money is evil. That sentence is the leper’s bell of an approaching looter.”
― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
“There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.”
― Ayn Rand
