"I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine."

— John Galt
Atlas Shrugged

 

Who is John Galt?
"He said he would stop the motor of the world... and he did.  But who is John Galt?  A destroyer or a liberator?  Why does he fight his battle, not against his enemies, but against those who need him most? Why does he fight his hardest battle against the woman he loves?"

With this acclaimed work and its immortal query, "Who is John Galt?", Ayn Rand found the perfect artistic form to express her vision of existence. Atlas Shrugged made Rand not only one of the most popular novelists of the century, but one of its most influential thinkers.
