No man belongs
to another, Dagny.

But there are those in power who
would have you think otherwise.

We honor charity
and benevolence,

but it must be provided
on the giver's terms-
181

feel guilty for our success.

for sacrificing ourselves...

to go on strike.

Thank you, Dagny.
855

just a little bit.

[ Chattering ]

Am I a guest or prisoner?

That choice is yours.

the John Gait line after me?

[ Dagny]
But I named 1? after my enemy.
868
01:03:00,510 --> 01:03:03,115
Well, that's the contradiction that
you're gonna have to figure out.

- You won't?
- [ Beeping ]

It's not just for the press, Miss Taggart.
It's for the audience also.

- Dagny, for Christ's sake!
- Cherryl deserved better.

Good evening,

Tonight, I can't.
878
01:03:31,206 --> 01:03:32,844
[ Gall ] Ladies and gentlemen,

Mr. Thompson will not
speak to you tonight.
880

His time is up.
881
01:03:37,514 --> 01:03:40,518
For years, you've asked,
“Who is John Gait?"
882
01:03:40,617 --> 01:03:43,496
You've asked that question
in despair and resignation...
883
01:03:43,552 --> 01:03:47,159
as factories closed,
goods became scarce,
884
01:03:47,222 --> 01:03:49,362
jobs disappeared.
885
01:03:49,458 --> 01:03:51,735
Your lives are becoming
more difficult...
886
01:03:51,827 --> 01:03:55,503
as the life force of your world
is draining away.
887
01:03:55,565 --> 01:03:59,842
You have asked that question
without expecting an answer.
888
01:03:59,902 --> 01:04:01,541
I'm here to answer it.
889
01:04:01,637 --> 01:04:04,481
This is John Gall speaking.
890
01:04:06,742 --> 01:04:09,485
Mr. Thompson won't tell you the truth
about the crisis in your world.
891
01:04:09,545 --> 01:04:11,355
I will.
892
01:04:11,414 --> 01:04:14,519
Have you noticed that as everything
around you seems to decline,
893
01:04:14,583 --> 01:04:16,893
one thing still grows?
894
01:04:17,019 --> 01:04:19,523
It is the power of your rulers.
[ Chattering ]
895
01:04:19,588 --> 01:04:21,590
None of their plans
and directives...
896
01:04:21,690 --> 01:04:25,365
have solved your problems
or made your life better.
897
01:04:25,427 --> 01:04:28,500
The only result has been their
increased control over you.”...
898
01:04:28,565 --> 01:04:31,375
at the cost of your freedom.
899
01:04:31,434 --> 01:04:33,003
Do you know why?
900
01:04:33,068 --> 01:04:35,878
You gave them the power.
901
01:04:35,938 --> 01:04:38,442
They called for your sacrifice,
902
01:04:38,541 --> 01:04:40,918
and you though!
It was noble.
903
01:04:41,010 --> 01:04:44,456
They said if you worked
for yourself and your family,
904
01:04:44,547 --> 01:04:47,619
that you were selfish
and uncaring.
905
01:04:47,717 --> 01:04:50,094
And they made you feel ashamed.
906
01:04:50,186 --> 01:04:53,599
They denounced the leaders of
industry as greedy exploiters-
907
01:04:53,690 --> 01:04:56,135
the Ellis Wyatts,
the Hank Reardens.
908
01:04:56,226 --> 01:04:59,365
And again, you agreed.
909
01:04:59,429 --> 01:05:00,907
And then you ask,
910
01:05:00,963 --> 01:05:04,878
'Why did they and others
like them disappear?”
911
01:05:04,934 --> 01:05:07,641
I took them from you.
912
01:05:07,737 --> 01:05:11,115
Their achievements flowed
from their creative minds.
913
01:05:11,206 --> 01:05:14,780
Once they understood that the
attempt to control their work...
914
01:05:14,878 --> 01:05:17,757
was an attempt
to control their minds,
915
01:05:17,813 --> 01:05:19,588
they left.
916
01:05:19,648 --> 01:05:22,630
The people on strike
worked for themselves,
917
01:05:22,719 --> 01:05:25,164
for their own vision
of what was possible.
918
01:05:25,255 --> 01:05:27,599
When they recognized
the honor they deserved,
919
01:05:27,657 --> 01:05:32,231
they rebelled against the guilt you
wanted them to feel for their success.
920
01:05:32,295 --> 01:05:34,467
You counted on them
to keep producing,
921
01:05:34,563 --> 01:05:36,304
to keep thinking-
922
01:05:36,398 --> 01:05:39,277
even as you denounced them
as selfish.
923
01:05:39,335 --> 01:05:44,284
I showed them they were being
punished for their own virtues,
924
01:05:44,340 --> 01:05:47,286
and I showed them
how evil that is.
925
01:05:47,342 --> 01:05:50,688
I made it my mission
to help these heroes say no.
926
01:05:50,780 --> 01:05:52,760
All evil needs to win...
927
01:05:52,815 --> 01:05:55,626
is the consent of good people.
928
01:05:55,684 --> 01:05:58,494

to freely produce,
929
01:05:58,588 --> 01:06:01,125
trade, cooperate
and compete in a place...
930

are protected.

Do not try to find us.
932
01:06:06,362 --> 01:06:09,639
Do not try to bargain
for our return.

the range of my voice,

you now have a choice to make.
936

of sacrifice enforced by the State,

and you will ride it down
to destruction.

But if you share
the values of our strike,
941
01:06:33,222 --> 01:06:36,568

is a sacred possession...

they impose,

by your generosity
when you hear cries of despair,
952

and above all,
by your innocence,
953

the depths of their evil.
954

is the world they wanted.
955
01:07:15,197 --> 01:07:16,733
Leave them to it.
956
01:07:16,833 --> 01:07:19,677
Those who have left you are
eager to build a better world,
957

a world of freedom
and opportunity,
958
01:07:21,938 --> 01:07:24,213
a world based
on mutual respect.
959
01:07:24,273 --> 01:07:26,413
In that world, you will
rise in the morning...

you knew in childhood-

the spirit of eagerness
and adventure...
962
01:07:31,246 --> 01:07:33,726
and the confidence that
the world is what it is...
963
01:07:33,782 --> 01:07:35,592
and is there
for you to discover.
964
01:07:35,684 --> 01:07:38,927
In that world, you will
not receive alms, nor pity,

nor forgiveness of sins,
966
01:07:41,056 --> 01:07:44,231
but honor, respect and justice.

spark by irreplaceable spark,

in, I don't know what will.

a lot of it tonight.

like we authorized that speech.

them think we didn't authorize it?

Oh, the public's not gonna believe that!
No, no, no, no.

Thai speech was way over their heads.
You know what?
989
01:08:43,485 --> 01:08:45,966
Gall was right about one thing. The
public can't think for themselves.
990
01:08:46,021 --> 01:08:48,002
They have to be controlled.

You got it.
1006
01:09:22,725 --> 01:09:26,171
Mr. Thompson stated,
"There is no cause for alarm. "
1007
01:09:26,229 --> 01:09:29,403
He urges the public not to draw
any uninformed conclusions,
1008

to preserve a sense of
broad-minded tolerance and mum/me.
