The purpose of the law is not to prevent a future offense, but to punish the one actually committed.
Ayn RandWhat is a demanding pleasure that demands the use of ones mind! Not in the sense of problem solving, but in the sense of exercising discrimination, judgment, awareness.
Ayn RandIndiscriminate tolerance and indiscriminate condemnation are not two opposites: they are two variants of the same evasion. To declare that โeverybody is whiteโ or โeverybody is blackโ or โeverybody is neither white nor black, but gray,โ is not a moral judgment, but an escape from the responsibility of moral judgment.
