        @BretEastonEllis Bullshit. You aren't guided by your desires and whims? Are you irrational? #whatacrock

        @BretEastonEllis That quote is a meaningless redundancy. It's also nonsensical to assert that reason operates in a vacuum. It takes desire.

        @BretEastonEllis Ayn Rand was an emotionally bankrupt failure as a human being. I would rather read quotes from someone with wisdom....

        @fuguewriter @breteastonellis Read any biography of the wretched Ayn Rand. She was a failure at personal relationships.

        @michaelcaution @BretEastonEllis No. Because "rational" judgement is merely emotion given a rationalization.
