AYN RAND Quotes


"A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others." ~Ayn Rand

"Achievement of your happiness is the only moral purpose of your life, and that happiness, not pain or mindless self-indulgence, is the proof of your moral integrity, since it is the proof and the result of your loyalty to the achievement of your values." ~Ayn Rand

"Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours." ~Ayn Rand

"In the name of the best within you, do not sacrifice this world to those who are its worst. In the name of the values that keep you alive, do not let your vision of man be distorted by the ugly, the cowardly, the mindless in those who have never achieved his title. Do not lose your knowledge that man's proper estate is an upright posture, an intransigent mind and a step that travels unlimited roads. Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desired can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it's yours." ~Ayn Rand

"Reason is not automatic. Those who deny it cannot be conquered by it. Do not count on them. Leave them alone." ~Ayn Rand

"Sex is impervious to reason." ~Ayn Rand

"The Argument from Intimidation is a confession of intellectual impotence." ~Ayn Rand

"The man who does not respect himself cannot respect anything or anyone." ~Ayn Rand

"The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me." ~Ayn Rand

"The world you desire can be won. It exists. It s real. It is possible. It is yours." ~Ayn Rand

"When you see that in order to produce,   you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing  - When you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods,  but in favours - When you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work,  and your laws don't protect you against them,  but protect them against you - When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming self-sacrifice - You may know that your society is doomed!" ~Ayn Rand,  Atlas Shrugged 1957
