"Let me tell you the truth. The truth is, 'what is'. And 'what should be' is a fantasy, a terrible terrible lie that someone gave to the people long ago. The 'what should be' never did exist, but people keep trying to live up to it. There is no 'what should be,' there is only what is." Lenny Bruce |

For smaller increments of it's value, you could tear out individual pages to use for cheaper purchases. The next time your at the store you could hand them some torn sheets of Atlas shrugged as payment. Super perfundo on the early eve of your day. |
