“I'm not scared of the Maos and the Stalins and the Hitlers.
I'm scared of the thousands of millions of people that hallucinate them to be "authority", and so do their bidding, and pay for their empires, and carry out their orders.
I don't care if there's one looney with a stupid moustache. He's not a threat if the people do not believe in "authority".”

“The main reason for moral inconsistencies and betrayals, Ayn Rand believed, is that men have been taught to pursue ideals that are irrational and therefore impractical. Traditional virtues, such as self-sacrifice, faith, and humility, are contrary to the requirements of human life and happiness. They force men into the horrible dilemma of having to choose between virtue and happiness—between morality and life itself.”
― Robert James Bidinotto, Atlas Shrugged: The Novel, the Films, the Philosophy

“The great explanation of how a disordered, unregulated system with no central control could order and regulate itself with such efficiency and precision that it would far surpass all other systems had not yet been made. That explanation, The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith, would not come until the seminal year of 1776.”
