Quotes from Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand

“Productiveness is your acceptance of morality, your recognition of the fact that you choose to live–that productive work is the process by which man's consciousness controls his existence, a constant process of acquiring knowledge and shaping matter to fit one's purpose, of translating an idea into physical form, of remaking the earth in the image of one's values–that all work is creative work if done by a thinking mind...”
— John Galt
Atlas Shrugged (Part 3, Chapter 7, Page 1,020)
