Ima li objektivista na forumu? Čita li neko radove ove genijalne autorke, po meni možda i najvećeg filozofa 20.veka? Moji omiljeni njeni radovi su Atlas Shrugged, For the new intellectual, Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology, The virtue of selfishness: A new concept of Egoism... I The Fountainhead mi se svideo, ali ne toliko kao neki njeni drugi radovi. Njeni rani radovi i dnevnički zapisi su mi naročito fascinantni. Inače mislim da je velika šteta što su Ayn Rand u tolikoj meri preuzeli američki desničari kao neku svoju ikonu i simbol kapitalizma, ja zapravo mislim da je ona kao ličnost i filozof bila daleko iznad nekakvih ekonomskih modela, i da je njen zamah daleko veći od toga, ali da je morala da se koristi i kapitalizmom ponegde u svom radu da bi bila bolje shvaćena i prihvaćena, pogotovu kao sovjetska autorka u Americi, i kako bi bolje drugima predočila aksiome Objetivizma i etičkog egoizma. Inače Rand je i kao ličnost, sama po sebi, bila sjajna i beskrajno zanimljiva i ja bih rekao šarmantna osoba, pa ovde možemo raspravljati i o tom aspektu njene priče.
Evo za početak nekoliko njenih citata:
-To say 'I love you' one must first be able to say the 'I.'
-Achievement of your happiness is the only moral purpose of your life, and that happiness, not pain or mindless self-indulgence, is the proof of your moral integrity, since it is the proof and the result of your loyalty to the achievement of your values.
-Man's unique reward, however, is that while animals survive by adjusting themselves to their background, man survives by adjusting his background to himself.
I nešto duhovito naposletku:
-When I die, I hope to go to Heaven, whatever the Hell that is.
