Find out how much you know about Atlas Shrugged in this fun 10-question quiz.
Great quiz!
I didn’t know she was thinking of calling it The Strike. Atlas Shrugged is definitely a better name. Love the quiz. 😃
Cute quiz!
Atlas Shrugged=magnum opus?
Nah. More like
Atlas Shrugged=The Fountainhead on steroids
Anyone who says they don’t like Atlas Shrugged hasn’t read Atlas Shrugged. Or they read it and didn’t understand it at all.
I sometimes wonder why Ayn didn’t include in her story the structure of the United States government? I don’t believe she mentions the US president, vice-president, secretary of state, senators, congressmen or anyone of that sort throughout the story.
She wouldn’t want to use the real president’s name (the man who was president at the time). If she made up a president’s name, that would be maybe a little weird.
Also, “President” is an honorable title. It has this aura of greatness around it, and the looters that Rand is portraying in the book have zero honor or greatness 🤣
It’s so interesting how Jim Taggart and the rest of the looters are constantly preaching about the public good, but the people who they call selfish are actually the ones who help the “public” the most.
Loveeeee it!
The scene when the goats explode on the farm, with this “project X” concept that Ferris and other looters created, and then said Dr Stadler created, is so freaky.
Especially when everyone else had to then say how much they loved it.
One part that really struck me was when the young man said to Dr Stadler, after the weapon exploded the goats, “tell them the truth! Tell them that you had nothing to do with it! Tell them what sort of infernal machine it is and for what purpose it’s intended to be used! Tell the country what people are trying to rule it! Nobody can doubt your word! Tell them the truth! Save us! You’re the only one who can!”
Stadler, man. You knew better.
Do you see any similarities between Dr. Stadler and Dr. Fauci?
Stadler’s character reflects a scientist who compromises his integrity within a corrupt system, and Fauci has faced significant criticism for perceived failures in public health messaging and leadership.
Both situations show the consequences of prioritizing politics over clear, ethical guidance, leading to public distrust and confusion.
Ayn Rand wrote about God without realizing it. That scene when Dagny first meets John Galt, is quite Biblical. “A face without pain or fear or guilt.”
Also, the fact that Rand continues to bring up God (it’s not like she’s bringing up Buddha, or Mohammed, or something else, and I intend no offense, I’m just being honest) is proof enough in itself that God is real.
I really like that quiz. Cool that she was going to call it The Strike.
When F. Scott Fitzgerald was writing “The Great Gatsby,” he was thinking of calling it “Under the Red White and Blue.” All I can say is, it wouldn’t have been a big success.
“The Strike” is NOT as good a name as Atlas Shrugged. But at least it isn’t under the red white and blue.
I got a perfect score YES
Atlas Shrugged is my favorite book. It is so great.
The businessmen who are called ‘selfish’ are the ones who actually create the most for the most people! Think about how much Hank Rearden, whom James Taggart would call selfish, created, in comparison to how much James Taggart, who was thought of as ‘selfless,’ created.
One quote from The Fountainhead that is interesting is ‘a selfless man has no self.’ But Atlas Shrugged just shows all of the themes and ideas in The Fountainhead except in a much… larger way… like hundreds of pages larger.
Atlas Shrugged! Yes! Its awesome!
I ❤️ Atlas Shrugged. So controversial people can’t see that’s it’s good. It’s interesting to see, of all of my friends/people I know, who understands and gravitates towards Ayn’s philosophy and which ones don’t. It’s as if There’s a genetic thing that goes on. Some people understand it and others don’t. I for one LOVE the book.
In Part 3 of the atlas shrugged movies…. The part where Dagny finds John Galt’s profile online (his ID for being a laborer at Taggart Transcontinental), I noticed some things that I feel the world needs to know.
1. They spelled “laborer” in the U.K. Spelling.
2. His EMAIL is “Aynfan57@gulch.com.”
WHAT?!?!?
Also in the movie, they made the actor who plays Stadler BRITISH!!! Why is he British!!! HE IS NOT BRITISH!!!!!!!
I AM A HUGE ATLAS SHRUGGED FANNN! The other day my friend’s mom asked me what the theme is (some sort of spontaneous test or something?!) and I was all, “selfishness is good.” But then I went all speech mode like Francisco did so many times in the book. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Whenever I see airplanes, I think “it’s John Galt going to galt’s gulch!” Today I actually saw two airplanes pretty close together and I was all, “it’s following John Galt to the gulch” because that isn’t a weird thought at all…
Ha ha
Have you read Atlas Shrugged?
🏆🏆🏆
I love Atlas Shrugged! It is interesting how some people don’t like it. I think there might be some genetic reasons for why people don’t like it.
Atlas Shrugged is so good!
