• I believe in no God, no invisible man in the sky. But there is something more powerful in each of us, a combination of our efforts, a great chain of industry that unites us.

• Steinman, I know Medical Pavilion is your manor, but you might want to cogitate on this: Ocean water is colder than a witch’s tit. You don’t heat the pipes, the pipes freeze; pipes freeze, pipes burst. Then Rapture leaks. Now, I realize you’re a posh sort of geezer and, frankly, I don’t give a toss if you piss or go fishing.

• I am Andrew Ryan, and I’m here to ask you a question. Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow? ‘No!’ says the man in Washington, ‘It belongs to the poor.’ ‘No!’ says the man in the Vatican, ‘It belongs to God.’ ‘No!’ says the man in Moscow, ‘It belongs to everyone.’ I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different.

• The assassin has overcome my final defense, and now he’s come to murder me. In the end, what separates a man from a slave? Money? Power? No, a man chooses, a slave obeys. You think you have memories. A farm, a family, an airplane, a crash, and then this place. Was there really a family? Did that plane crash, or was it hijacked, forced down, forced down by something less than a man? Something bred to sleepwalk through life, until they’re activated by a simple phrase spoken by their kindly master? Was a man sent to kill? Or a slave? A man chooses, a slave obeys. Come here, stop, would you kindly? ‘Would you kindly’. A powerful phrase, a familiar phrase. Sit, would you kindly? Stand, would you kindly? Run! Stop. Turn!

• Even in a book of lies you sometimes find truth. There is indeed a season for all things, and now that I see you flesh to flesh, blood to blood, I know I cannot raise my hand against you. But know this, you are my greatest disappointment. Does your master hear me? Atlas! You can kill me, but you can never have my city!

• On the surface, I once bought a forest. The parasites claimed that the land belonged to God, and that I establish a public park there. Why?

God did not plant the seeds of this Arcadia. I did. - View Quote Details on On the surface, I once bought a forest. The parasites…

All that killing… you think the Germans could have been interested in something useful. - View Quote Details on At the German prison camp they put me to work…
• You think that’s a child down there? Don’t be fooled. She’s a Little Sister now. Somebody went and turned a sweet baby girl into a monster.
