I’m really enjoying Ayn Rand’s writing ATM.
A few of my favourite quotes, there are so many excellent options…
“Wealth is the product of man’s capacity to think (and act on those thoughts).”
“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.”
“It was the greatest sensation of existence: not to trust, but to know.”
“There are no evil thoughts except one: the refusal to think.”
At a time when, we as a people are being asked to delegate our self responsibility and our capacity to think for ourselves to our authorities, I say, I am my ONLY authority.
To give authority to another over yourself is to subjugate yourself as a slave to that entity, be it your government, your company, your boss, your clients, your parent/s, your ‘friend’, your spouse or your child/ren.
Ask yourself, who is your master? Who do you answer to?
