"... Altruism declares that any action taken for the benefit of others is good, and any action taken for one's own benefit is evil. Thus the beneficiary of an action is the only criterion of moral value--and so long as that beneficiary is anybody other than oneself, anything goes."Ayn Rand

This... is John Aglialoro Speaking

”I want to explain to you why you are the most important person in the Universe…. and if you don’t think so… then you’ll never really get anywhere worth going… “ - John Aglialoro
Recently, Atlas Shrugged Movie Producer John Aglialoro was asked to give a speech to the Executive Forum Group of a local business. Always ready to further propagate the principles of Objectivism, he enthusiastically accepted.
While those lucky enough to be in attendance got to experience John’s passionate and infectious delivery first hand, the Gulch did manage to score a copy of his spectacular speech, “The Virtue of You First… an Ethical Basis,” with all of John's personal hand written notes in tact.

Dr. David Kelley to Retire

It's true; at the end of 2017, Atlas Society founder and Chief Intellectual Officer, Dr. David Kelley, is retiring.
Dr. Kelley founded TAS in 1990 to help launch an independent branch of the Objectivist movement and to advance the philosophy.
As David has taught us all so much, Atlas Shrugged Part 3 Associate Producer, Scott DeSapio, takes a moment to tell the story of his first meeting with David and to celebrate some of his favorites of Dr. Kelley's work...
