The two had the kind of lively, smart, give and take, back and forth, philosophical conversation that certainly feels like it's from another era. Wallace smoked at times during the interview. The mood was still. The camera work direct. What struck us about this golden interview was hearing Rand passionately and forcefully about her view on the essence of what drives much of life: love. To her it was like a business deal. Love was not about the other person, but the selfish pleasure it brings you. Was Ayn Rand right about the true meaning of love and happiness? More classic Ayn Rand: \"Aristotle... is the only philosopher that ever influenced me. I devised the rest of my philosophy myself.\" \"Man is entitled to his own happiness. And that he must achieve it himself. \"Man cannot demand that others give up their lives to make him happy.\" \"Nobody has ever given a reason why men should be their brother’s keepers.\" \"You don‘t love causes. You don’t love everybody indiscriminately. You love only those who deserve it.\" Subscribe for new episodes every other Tuesday (it's <a href='http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=blankonblank' target='_blank'
