All property and all forms of wealth are produced by man's mind and labor.

Every form of causeless self-doubt, every feeling of inferiority and secret unworthiness is, in fact, man's hidden dread of his inability to deal with existence.

Man cannot survive except by gaining knowledge, and reason is his only means to gain it.

An attempt to gain a value by deceiving the mind of others is an act of raising your victims to a position higher than reality.

If there are degrees of evil, it is hard to say who is more contemptible: the brute who assumes the right to force the mind of others or the moral degenerate who grants to others the right to force his mind.

Man's mind is his basic tool of survival. Life is given to him, survival is not. His body is given to him, its sustenance is not. His mind is given to him, its content is not. To remain alive, he must act, and before he can act he must know the nature and purpose of his action...To remain alive, he must think.

Whatever he was-that robot in the Garden of Eden, who existed without mind, without values, without labor, without love-he was not man.
