This quote is commonly attributed to Ayn Rand, but I have not been able to locate a primary source. Use with caution in academic or professional contexts.
“I don’t intend to build in order to have clients. I intend to have clients in order to build.”
— Ayn Rand“Contradictions do not exist. Whenever you think that you are facing a contradiction, check your premises. You will find that one of them is wrong.”
— Ayn Rand“A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.”
— Ayn Rand“Do not make the mistake of the ignorant who think that an individualist is a man who says: I’ll do as I please at everybody else’s expense. An individualist is a man who recognizes the inalienable individual rights of man—his own and those of others.
— Ayn Rand“You had to trust the people you worked with completely or not at all, and you had to make decisions about the trusting.”
— Ernest Hemingway“The proud hate pride—in others.”
— Benjamin Franklin“It is important to make a dream of life and a dream reality.”
