Dagny: Guys, we’ve got 
to save John Galt! I know we’re never supposed to do something for nothing, and, let’s be honest, John is there because of his own stupidity! He could have stayed in capitalist utopia.

For years, people have been saying “Who is John Galt?”, even in this very building, without even noticing that John Galt literally works here! How dumb have I been? I mean, should I feel really embarrassed that John Galt literally works in the same building as me, and I’ve been looking for him for two years? Nah. I’m a CAPITALIST!
Hank Rearden: My mill is dead because of commies, and my money is seized by the gub’mint! They tried to trick me into helping people not starve to death, but I’m too smart for that!
