“One science only will one genius fit”
― An Essay On Criticism
― An Essay On Criticism
“...the man who damns money has obtained it dishonorably; the man who respects it has earned it.”
― Atlas Shrugged
― Atlas Shrugged
“Did you really think that we want those laws to be observed? We want them broken. There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted—and you create a nation of law-breakers—and then you cash in on guilt.”
