Quote by John Buchanan Robinson
But the egoist has no ideals, for the knowledge that his ideals are only his ideals, frees him from their domination. He acts for his own interest, not for the interest of ideals.
Summary
This quote is suggesting that an egoist, someone who prioritizes their own interests above anything else, does not have any fixed ideals. This is because they are aware that their ideals are subjective and personal, freeing them from being controlled or dictated by these ideals. Instead, an egoist acts solely for their own benefit and self-interest, focusing on what serves them personally rather than conforming to or seeking to pursue abstract ideals.
