Of all the statist violations of individual rights in a mixed economy, the military draft is the worst. It is an abrogation of rights. It negates man’s fundamental right-the right to life-and establishes the fundamental principle of statism: that a man’s life belongs to the state, and the state may claim it by compelling him to sacrifice it in battle. Once that principle is accepted, the rest is only a matter of time.

The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities.

Capitalism is not the system of the past; it is the system of the future -- if mankind is to have a future

The creed of sacrifice is a morality for the immoral.

A man who seeks escape from the responsibility of supporting his life by his own thought and effort, and wishes to survive by conquering, ruling and exploiting others, is NOT an Individualist.

I would give the greatest sunset in the world for one sight of New York's skyline.

This god, this one word: I.
