Ayn Rand Frases famosas
Criminals are a small minority in any age or country. And the harm they have done to mankind is infinitesimal when compared to the horrors-the bloodshed, the wars, the persecutions, the confiscations, the famines, the enslavements, the wholesale destructions-perpetrated by mankind’s governments. Potentially, a government is the most dangerous threat to man’s rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims. When unlimited and unrestricted by individual rights, a government is men’s deadliest enemy.

Atlas Shrugged
Atlas Shrugged
“Olhe ao seu redor - disse ele.”
Uma cidade é a forma concretizada da coragem humana - a coragem dos homens que pensaram pela primeira vez em cada parafuso, cada rebite, cada gerador necessário para construí-la. A coragem de dizer não 'a meu ver', mas 'o fato é o seguinte', e apostar sua própria vida no seu julgamento. Você não está sozinha. Esses homens existem."
Atlas Shrugged

“Não era algo de mau desejar sem agir - ou caminhar sem objetivo?”

Ayn Rand: Frases em inglês
“The cult of moral grayness is a revolt against moral values.”

The Fountainhead (1943).
Fonte: Atlas Shrugged
Contexto: That particular sense of sacred rapture men say they experience in contemplating nature- I've never received it from nature, only from. Buildings, Skyscrapers. I would give the greatest sunset in the world for one sight of New York's skyline. The shapes and the thought that made them. The sky over New York and the will of man made visible. What other religion do we need? And then people tell me about pilgrimages to some dank pest-hole in a jungle where they go to do homage to a crumbling temple, to a leering stone monster with a pot belly, created by some leprous savage. Is it beauty and genius they want to see? Do they seek a sense of the sublime? Let them come to New York, stand on the shore of the Hudson, look and kneel. When I see the city from my window - no, I don't feel how small I am - but I feel that if a war came to threaten this, I would like to throw myself into space, over the city, and protect these buildings with my body.
“I loathe your ideals because I know no worse injustice than the giving of the undeserved.”

“How do you always manage to decide?"
"How can you let others decide for you?”
