Ayn Rand Quotes:
Ocupation: Novelist
Life: February 2, 1905 - March 6, 1982
Birthday: February 2
Death: March 6
When one acts on pity against justice, it is the good whom one punishes for the sake of the evil; when one saves the guilty from suffering, it is the innocent whom one forces to suffer. There is no escape from justice, nothing can be unearned and unpaid for in the universe, neither in matter nor in spirit—and if the guilty do not pay, then the innocent have to pay it.
