As a human being, you have no choice about the fact that you need a philosophy. You're only choice is whether you define your philosophy by a conscious, rational, disciplined process of thought and scrupulously logical deliberation--or let your subconscious accumulate a junk heap of unwarranted conclusions, false generalizations, undefined contradictions, undigested slogans, unidentified wishes, doubts and fears, thrown together by chance, but integrated by your subconscious into a kind of mongrel philosophy an fused into a single solid weight...like a ball and chain in the place where your mind's wings should have grown.
—Ayn Rand, in "Philosophy, Who Needs It?"
