It shouldn’t be terribly surprising that I more or less agree with Howard Roark, but forget me the quote has to illicit some sort of emotion out of you, I’d I love to hear it! I added the paragraph splits to make it easier to read online. But I’ll be damned if I can see why a man worth forty must be penalized – and penalized in favor of the one who’s less competent. I’d have no desire to penalize a man because he’s worth only fifteen dollars a week. And they have to move from a converted brownstone into an uncoverted one and from that into a railroad flat. But they’re the ones who provide the money for the damn project. They make forty dollars a week and wouldn’t be allowed into a housing project. Have you seen the converted brownstones in which the average self-supporting couple has to live? Have you seen their closet kitchens and their plumbing? They’re forced to live that – because they’re not incompetent enough. Nobody can afford a modern apartment – except the very rich and the paupers. Not if it raises the taxes, raises all the othe rrents and makes the man who earns forty live in a rat hole. I think it’s a worthy undertaking – to provide a decent apartment for a man who earns fifteen dollars a week. ‘what architect isn’t interested in housing?’ I hate the whole blasted idea of it. Howard Roark is accepting Peter’s plea to help him design a public housing unit, Howard Roark Talks about Government Housing ProjectsĪ little background about the lengthy quote: In this ‘scene’ one main character Howard Roark, an architect, is talking to another main character, Peter Keating. I really liked the book and plan on re-reading it one day, but closing in on the last 100 pages or so I came across a diatribe by the main character, Howard Roark that I felt should be shared. It took me forever since I only really read when on vacation, and the book clocks in at over 700 pages. After way too long I finally finished The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand.
