Where did you get that from?
Thanks, MinorityOfOne.
But that dosen’t say that he wouldn’t have been accepted into Galt’s Gulch if he had been willing to give up the world… or if it does, I don’t see how.
Hmmph. I wrote a long reply to this earlier, but then my computer decided to reboot itself.
I’m not going to try to rewrite it… suffice to say, I think Eddie would have been accepted into the Gulch if he had been willing to go – which he was not. And I think he was not willing for the same reason Dagny was unwilling through most of the book. He thought that leaving the Comet to the looters – the Comet being the symbol for everything he valued – would be a betrayal. He remained defiant to the end.
From “Letters of Ayn Rand”, Invictus. You can buy it from aynrandbookstore.com… very interesting reading. (So are her journals, by the way.)
Yes, MinorityOfOne… I agree.
