"In the name of the best within you, do not sacrifice this world to those who are its worst. In the name of the values that keep you alive, do not let your vision of man be distorted by the ugly, the cowardly, the mindless in those who have never achieved his title. Do not lose your knowledge that man's proper estate is an upright posture, an intransigent mind and a step that travels unlimited roads. Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desired can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it's yours. "
-Atlas Shrugged
Welcome to the Austin Objectivists. Our goal is the study of Ayn Rand's philosophy, Objectivism, and the defense of those ideas in our culture. Anyone who is interested in Ayn Rand's ideas is welcome. In the "About" page you will find my description of our goals. Check out the message board and calendar to see what we are up to and talking about. In the "Links" thread on the message board you will find many Objectivism resources. Come on in and make yourself at home :)

“Ayn Rand gave me the words for feelings I have always had, but was unable to vocalize until I read Atlas Shrugged and Anthem. I would love to hang out with others who feel the same.” -
