The purpose of morality is to teach you, not to suffer and die, but to enjoy yourself and live.
Ayn RandThere is nothing wrong in helping other people, if and when they are worthy of the help and you can afford to help them.
Ayn RandThere must be only three supreme values which govern a person's life: Reason, Purpose, and Self-esteem. Reason, as his only tool of knowledge--Purpose, as his choice of the happiness which that tool must proceed to achieve--Self-esteem, as his inviolate certainty that his mind is competent to think and his person is worthy of happiness, which means: is worthy of living. These three values imply and require all of man's virtues, and all his virtues pertain to the relation of existence and consciousness: rationality, independence, integrity, honesty, justice, productiveness, pride.
