The Voice of Reason by Ayn Rand
Rate this book
Clear rating
I must make it clear that I am in no way an Objectivist. I find the philosophy to be borderline sociopathic and completely unable to bring about a better world if put into practice.

However, I find Ayn Rand very fascinating and enjoy reading her work.

The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis

This might just be Lewis' masterpiece.

This was a wonderfully strange way to construct a novel. Lewis explores his religious philosophy in creative ways that I have never seen done before or since. It's a shame Uncle Screwtape is not considered a more

I'm not rating this. It's an iconic work of fiction and I suspect the audiobook might actually be very enjoyable. The book, however, is unreadable. I'm not finishing this.

Cormac decided that quotation marks and proper punctuation were not needed. Tho

Stephen  King
“I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
I aim with my eye.

I do not shoot with my hand; he who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
I shoot with my mind.

I do not kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his father.
I kill with my heart.”
Stephen King, The Gunslinger (The Dark Tower, #1) separate

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men, doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.”
J.R.R. Tolkien

William Shakespeare
“It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.”
William Shakespeare

J.R.R. Tolkien
“It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going, because they were holding on to something. That there is some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for.”
J.R.R. Tolkien

J.R.R. Tolkien
“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

No problem. LOTR is of course a classic. If you like it, you would probably also get a kick out of Name of the Wind. Thanks for accepting! :)
