Soon it will be the 80th anniversary of Ayn Rand's "The Fountainhead." And still no one has addressed the grave threat that she bravely raised in that novel: the power of architecture critics. Whom will they lead their mobs against next?

Ayn Rand was BOTD in 1905 & died in 1982 at 77. Her novel "The Fountainhead" was made into a King Vidor movie for which she wrote the screenplay. I assume that since Patricia Neal's mouth is open in the poster, it implies that she is the one saying, "No man takes what's mine!" https://t.co/j2BQ6Odcdh

If someone starts talking WEF (World Economic Forum), run 100 miles away in the opposite direction as fast as you can. I once heard someone say similar for people who talk about Ayn Rand. For the record, I did read The Fountainhead over a weekend (three days) when I was 18.
