Be simple, follow the simple Truth || Acharya Prashant, on 'The Fountainhead' (2019)

Conversation between Roark and Dominique at a social gathering:

Miss Francon (Dominique): “You’re wrong about Austen, Mr. Roark. He’s very successful. In his profession and mine you’re successful if it leaves you untouched.”

Howard Roark: “How does one achieve that?”

Miss Francon (Dominique): “In one of two ways: by not looking at people at all or by looking at everything about them.”

Howard Roark: “Which is preferable, Miss Francon?”

Miss Francon (Dominique): “Whichever is hardest.”

Howard Roark: “But a desire to choose the hardest might be a confession of weakness in itself.”

Miss Francon (Dominique): “Of course, Mr. Roark. But it’s the least offensive form of confession.”
