Ayn Rand is a stinking genius, below are some of my favorite excerpts from her book(so far):

Contradictions do not exist.

Man's motive power is his moral code.

The most depraved man is one without purpose.

The greatest moral evil is the refusal to think.

Wealth is the product of man's capacity to think.

Money is only a tool. It will take you wherever you wish, but it will not replace you as the driver. It will give you the means for the satisfaction of your desires, but it will not provide for your desires. Money is the scourge of the men who attempt to reverse the law of causality - the men who seek to replace the mind by seizing the products of the mind.

Money will not purchase happiness for the man who has no concept of what he wants; money will not give him a code of values, if he's evaded the knowledge of what to value and it will not provide him with a purpose. Money will not buy intelligence for the fool, admiration for the coward or respect for the incompetent.
