Quote by Ayn Rand

“Whenever anyone accuses some person of being 'unfeeling,' he means that that person is just. He means that that person has no causeless emotions and will not grant him a feeling which he does not deserve. He means that 'to feel' is to go against reason, against moral values, against reality.”

A person imprisoned by these schemes is like a plant in a flowerpot too small for it he cannot grow or mature.”
