Victor Pross Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Which Ayn Rand hero are you? http://www.quizilla.com/users/onionpeel/qu...ero%20are%20youTake this quiz and let us know. Come on, don't be shy. Me and Angie? Um....we're both Dagny Taggart. (Yeah, we're a real match, huh?) :turned: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studiodekadent Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Im Howard Roark. Unsurprisingly. I always thought I was like Howard Roark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brant Gaede Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I've got a soft spot for Dagny's brother! But I'm not him, of course. Eddie Willers plus lots of sex with Dagny. That's me! Ha, ha! John Galt!--Brant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studiodekadent Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 But I'm not him, of course. Eddie Willers plus lots of sex with Dagny. That's me! Ha, ha!I can certainly understand the "lots of sex with Dagny" thing, given I share similar lusts. I think that many Objectivists would agree. Hell, Im sure even some gay male Objectivists would go straight for Dagny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brant Gaede Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 O.m'God, I took the quiz. I'm H. Roark!No. No. No. I'm--BRANT!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PalePower Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Hah, I'm Roark.But, honestly? For favorite character?Francisco.Omgomgomgomg. TOTALLY in love with Francisco. *rolls around*~Elizabeth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Russell Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I'm Dominique Francon; Peri is Dagny Taggart. My favorite Rand charactor (I wouldn't call him a Rand hero) is Andrei Taganov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greybird Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Another "Dagny" here. I'd love to see how Angelina Jolie portrays her, by the way.I'm more personally partial to Hank Rearden and, yes, Gail Wynand: Both men went along with being oppressed for their virtues, one managed to avoid being beaten down by the oppressors, the other did not. Yet both were richly drawn.Roark and Galt were meant to be ideal men, and yet, and yet ... though among my favorites, they throw off fewer artistic sparks for me than for others. Perhaps because they're so clearly shown, when we meet them, as already having gotten past any temptation to give up on their own paths — Galt more so than Roark.

Richard Uhler Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 (edited) I came up " Howard Roark." I wanted to say something clever or funny about that, but I don't guess that's a very Howard Roark thing to do <chuckle>. Going back to Pro Tools now...

I love Wynand.Francisco, though... oh my goodness. I find him the most vivacious of Rand's characters. Life just rockets out of him. Nothing can stop him! He's endlessly skilled, endlessly intelligent, endlessly passionate, and best of all, there's this light-hearted JOY frothing about. I love Roark's integrity, but. . . laugh!! ~Elizabeth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kat Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 You are Dagny Taggart. You approach work and love with passion and competence; you know what you want and you know when you deserve it. You go girl!Move over, Angelina. I am a much better Dagny. Kat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laure Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Well, it seems I'm Howard Roark. I would've thought I was Eddie Willers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dailey Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 ~ Strange!~ I'm Dagny!???~ Where's my Wonder Woman costume (I know I left it around here somewhere...God, I hate that bra; I'm nowhere that big)?~ I hate these 'forced-choice' questionnaires...especially when some 'choices' seem like only Groucho would pick.~ At least I wasn't Cheryl (or, yuck, Ptui.)LLAPJ:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAMF Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Chris, I'd have called him Howie. I'm Dagny...and if I knew her, I'd call her Dag or DagTag (only with her permission of course!)

Chris Grieb Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 (edited) I have seen Michael and Barbara together so I know they are not the same person. Kori; It worth noting that only two of the heroes are referred to by nicknames Francisco and Henry Reardan. Was Frisco used only by Dagny.
