Objectivist Car

Recently I was behind a car on highway 237 that clearly belonged to an Objectivist. The license plate said “B IS B”, and there were two large bumper stickers with quotes from the book Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.   One was John Galt’s creed:

I swear, by my life and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.

I don’t recall with complete certainty what the other one said, but I think it was:

My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute.
