And so I didn’t come here to do you a favor or because I felt sorry for you or because you need a job pretty badly. I came for a simple, selfish reason — the same reason that makes a man choose the cleanest food he can find. It’s a law of survival, isn’t it? — to seek the best. I didn’t come for your sake. I came for mine.
- Howard Roark, The Fountainhead, Ayn Rand
