I Should Be Drawing

• For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking.
  I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his
  values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world,
  and if you wish to know why you are perishing-you who dread knowledge-I am the man who
  will now tell you.” The chief engineer was the only one able to move; he ran to a
  television set and struggled frantically with its dials. But the screen remained empty;
  the speaker had not chosen to be seen. Only his voice filled the airways of the
  country-of the world, thought the chief engineer-sounding as if he were speaking
  here, in this room, not to a group, but to one man; it was not the tone of addressing
  a meeting, but the tone of addressing a mind.
