Ayn Ran, yeah I guessed that Neeka-lol. Yeah, pretty good temperment here considering the suject matter at hand-lol. Emotions run high. Coming out of a ghetto with an alcoholic father my journey was long and hard. I knew not where I go-lol. I just knew I should search for information. I went on a search for knowledge and ran across Ayn Rand early in my search. I read everyone I could think of to try and find out what the great minds had figured out. Plato is one of my favorites. Camus, sartre and gunterh Grasss taugth me existentialism. "The path to wisdom is steep and narrow and dangerous as the razors edge." Sommerset Maughm. I read Ayn Rand before I understood much. She appealed to me in the beginning as she was certainly profound. But when I discovered John Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, George Bernard Shaw, Bertrand Russel and Aldous Huxly, Albert Einstein, Alfred North Whitehead, I left Ayn Rand behind.
