I swear, by my life and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.

Love is the expression of one's values, the greatest reward you can earn for the moral qualities you have achieved in your character and person, the emotional price paid by one man for the joy he receives from the virtues of another.

To say "I love you" one must first be able to say the "I."

When I die, I hope to go to Heaven, whatever the Hell that is.

A government is the most dangerous threat to man's rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims.

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.

"Mediocrity" doesn't mean average intelligence, it means an average intelligence that resents and envies its betters

The only purpose of education is to teach a student how to live his life-by developing his mind and equipping him to deal with reality. The training he needs is theoretical, i.e., conceptual. He has to be taught to think, to understand, to integrate, to prove. He has to be taught the essentials of the knowledge discovered in the past-and he has to be equipped to acquire further knowledge by his own effort.

When I disagree with a rational man, I let reality be our final arbiter; if I am right, he will learn; if I am wrong, I will; one of us will win, but both will profit.

There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: the fashionable non-conformist.

The action required to sustain human life is primarily intellectual: everything man needs has to be discovered by his mind and produced by his effort

Evil requires the sanction of the victim.

He had a big head and a face so ugly it became almost fascinating.

Reason is not automatic. Those who deny it cannot be conquered by it. Do not count on them. Leave them alone.

To say 'I love you' one must first be able to say the 'I.'

The man who lets a leader prescribe his course is a wreck being towed to the scrap heap.
