My Wonderful Life

from The Fountainhead

by 만술[ME] 2008. 1. 23.
The great creators - the thinkers, the artists, the scientists, the inventors - stood alone against the men of their time. Every great new thought was opposed. Every great new invention was denounced. The first motor was considered foolish. The airplane was considered impossible... But the men of unborrowed vision went ahead. They fought, they suffered and they paid. But they won. ... The creator served nothing and no one. He had lived for himself. And only by living for himself was he able to achieve the things which are the glory of mankind. Such is the nature of achievement.
- Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

일부 회사 경영진의유보적 입장에도 불구하고수많은 충돌속에서도 꿋꿋이 추진하던, 어찌보면 회사의 성격 자체를 바꿔 놓을 수도 있었던 프로젝트가 결국 중단되던 시점에공교롭게도 읽게된, 프로젝트를 책임지고 있던 제게 있어정말 마음에 와닿았던 구절입니다.
오늘도 또다른 creation을 위해 the men oftheir time과 맞서야죠.^^
