...basing your whole life on the writings of some second-rate novelist from the 1950s? No, not Scientology, the cult founded by L. Ron Hubbard.
(Never trust a guy in an ascot.)
I was referring to a different cult, Objectivism, the "philosophy" of Ayn Rand.

The perfect quote-
"There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."
- John Rogers - screenwriter & producer extraordinaire
