I have been thinking of writing a post about something all these days but I haven't been able to concentrate on anything because I am reading "The Fountainhead!"
It's a big book and I've just started, but every page, every dialogue brings a storm in my thinking head!
After reading the first 100 pages I was simply awed, and asked myself, Why didn't I read this book all these years? It looks like "The Book" I had been searching for, waiting for!
I am still just reading it, so it will be better to say anything about it only when I finish!
But I couldn't keep away from blogging, Gosh I've missed this space and I don't like the heading " Why I killed Gandhi" all over my blog for such a long time.....it's time to move on to the next topic.....Gandhi is dead and so is Nathuram....so let's talk about happier times...or anything else...
Before I sign off, the dialogues that touched my soul:
"Don't you know that most people take most things because that's what's given to them, and they have no opinion whatever? Do you wish to be guided by what they expect you to think they think ,or by your own judgment?"
" What do you want? Perfection?"
" - or nothing. So , you see, I take the nothing!"
" That doesn't make sense."
"I take the only desire one can really permit oneself. Freedom, Alvah freedom!"
" You call that Freedom?"
" To ask nothing. To expect nothing. To depend on nothing!"
Awesome!
Hats off to Ayn Rand!
