Man's character is the product of his premises.

It's a rare gift, you know, to feel reverence for your own life and to want the best, the greatest, the highest possible, here, now, for your very own.

Collectivism requires self-sacrifice, the subordination of one's interests to those of others.

Don't consider our interests or desires. You have no duty to anyone but yourself.

When you force a man to act against his own choice and judgment, it's his thinking that you want him to suspend.

Every form of happiness if one, every desire is driven by the same motor--by our love for a single value, for the highest potentiality of our own existence--and every achievement is an expression of it.

Only a man of integrity can possess the virtue of honesty, since only the faking of one’s consciousness can permit the faking of existence.
