Tell me what a man finds sexually attractive and I will tell you his entire philosophy of life. Show me the woman he sleeps with and I will tell you his valuation of himself. – Ayn Rand

Ayn Rand’s work and ideas flow smoothly through your entire work. Before this quote something felt oddly familiar. Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead have inspired my creative energy for some time as well.
It would be a joy, I think to simply have a drink together and share her philosophy with you. You show your time and the”projects” you will accept (like Roark) are like any other – they are yours to sell or not. Amazing.

Hello Dave, thanks for stopping by.
I agree that Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead are great inspirational reading, and many people who otherwise disagree with many of Ayn Rand’s ideas enjoyed those novels. Their protagonists are simply “overhuman”.
I wonder though if objectivism, just like the communism Rand denounced, is something that looks good on paper but is terribly flawed in practice.
