if you like the quotes, read atlas shrugged by ayn rand. or fountainhead, same author. both are quite long over 800 pages but it spells it out pretty good and i am really aware of it now. never been happier. i really dont like preaching but i feel so many people are unhappy because of all the contradictory ways society expects us to behave. it doesnt have to be that way. you just gotta recognize it and get rid of the guilt and fear. i read em back to back and i will never be the same.
i should probably say i dont agree withher on everything, but with regards to how people interact and her thoughts on shame and guilt, i think shes spot on.
i know its off topic and wouldve used a private message, but feel this apply to many........

Just as life is an end in itself, so every living human being is an end in himself, not the means to the ends or the welfare of others - and, therefore, man must live for his own sake, neither sacrificing himself to others nor sacrificing others to himself.
