Thoughts flutter throughout the day. Few stay, few flit, few need to be celebrated. Thoughts are man’s gift, valuable enough to cherish for infinity. In a hope to immortalize those thoughts, I etch words onto this blog wishing all the way to carry them further into the world.

The Fountainhead
I’ve read many good books. Some of them have blown me away
with the words they carry. The Little Prince holds the trophy for me. Rather, held. It had to make way for The
Fountainhead by Ayn Rand. This book is considered to the bible for creative
people. I didn’t know about the fame that followed the book until after I had
read it. So, my opinion is completely unbiased when I say The Fountainhead is
one of the most amazing book ever written.
As I was reading it, I had a sense as if I was reading
something very sacred and each word must be read twice so that it could be committed
to memory. It is an intensely written book with intense characters who are
bound to stay in your head (not your heart) for a long time.
You could ask me why I haven’t written a review.
I feel that by writing a review I will be causing disrespect
to those words. You will know what I mean when you read The Fountainhead.

Hm, this sounds like it must be a really great book then. I am going to be reading the little prince this summer because I haven't done that yet, but after I do, I will try this one too!
