Some of my favorite quotes which also serve as my beacons, my guiding lights.
It doesn't say much. Only 'Howard Roark, Architect'. But it is like those mottoes men carved over the entrance of a castle and died for. It's a challenge in the face of something so vast so dark that all the pain on earth; and do you know how much suffering there is on earth? All pain comes from that thing you are going to to face. I don't know what it is, I don't know why it should be unleashed against you. I know only that it will be. And I know if you carry these words through to the end, it will be a victory, Howard. Not just for you, but for something that should win, that moves the world and never wins acknowledgement. It will vindicate so many who have fallen before you, who have suffered as you will suffer. May God bless you or whoever it is alone to see that best, the highest possible to human hearts. You are on your way to hell, Howard.
-- The Fountainhead [Book]
All that is gold, does not glitter.
All those who wander are not lost.
The old that is strong does not wither.
Deep roots are not touched by frost.

My act of loyalty to every creator who ever lived and was made to suffer by the force responsible for Cortlandt I dynamited. To every tortured hour of loneliness, denial, frustration and abuse he was made to spend and to the battles he won. To every creator whose name is known and to every creator who lived, struggled and perished unrecognized before he could achieve. To every creator who was destroyed in body or in spirit. To Henry Cameron. To Steven Mallory. To a Man who does not want to be named but who is sitting in the courtroom and knows that I am speaking of him. - The Fountainhead [Book]
A honest man is one who knows he can't consume more than he has produced. - Atlas Shrugged [Book]
