Rare “Ayn Rand might be right” moment: “Do not say that you’re afraid to trust your mind because you know so little. Are you safe surrendering to mystics and discarding the little that you know? Live and act within the limit of your knowledge and keep expanding it to the limit of your life.”

I see we’ve gotten to the manifesto section of the ideological novel. Lord grant me the strength to get through this 55-page speech

Thank god that’s over

I thought Dagny and Rearden’s domination play was annoying, but her and Galt’s interactions are so much worse, I can’t stand to read it

God fucking dammit, those with means go to Billionaire Valley while those who share the same values but are burdened by generational poverty just die

Alright, Dagny, I’m sure it’s not meant to be, but I hope you succeed at changing the world before it crumbles

It was a sweeter human moment showing how Francisco (and Rearden and Kellogg) responded to thinking Dagny was dead and finding out she wasn’t

“It was you [Galt] who started this strike?” she asked.

No fucking shit, Dagny, get with the program. He literally walked out of his job saying, ‘I refuse to work under these conditions.’ You don’t deserve to sleep with him if you ask dumb questions like that
