You have destroyed all that which you held to be evil and achieved all that which you held to be good. Why, then, do you shrink in horror from the sight of the world around you?

It is your moral ideal brought into reality in its full and final perfection - John Galt in 'Atlas Shrugged' by Ayn Rand

The effects of public policy should be seen up close.
