Quote by Ayn Rand

The truth is not for all men, but only for those who seek it.


The truth is not for all men, but only for those who seek it

Summary

This quote suggests that not everyone is willing or interested in discovering the truth. Instead, it implies that only those individuals who actively seek the truth are considered capable of understanding it. The truth may not be universally comprehensible or accessible to everyone, as some may lack the motivation, curiosity, or open-mindedness required to pursue it. Therefore, this quote emphasizes the idea that finding the truth is a personal journey that depends on individual curiosity and effort.

Don't order any black things. Rejoice in his memory; and be radiant: leave grief to the children. Wear violet and purple. Be patient with the poor people who will snivel: they don't know; and they think they will live for ever, which makes death a division instead of a bond.
