Ayn Rand híres idézetei

„Az individualista olyan ember, aki azt mondja: "Nem irányítom senki életét - és nem is hagyom, hogy bárki irányítsa az enyémet. Nem fogok uralkodni, és nem is hagyom, hogy uralkodjanak rajtam. Nem leszek sem úr, sem rabszolga. Nem áldozom fel magam senkinek - és nem áldozok fel senkit magamnak."”

Ayn Rand

„Minden fejlődés az egyének munkájának köszönhető.”

Ayn Rand
