Which of Ayn Rand's characters do you resemble?

[Quantess]

Take the super quick quiz: http://quizilla.teennick.com/quizzes/1056179/the-fountainhead-which-of-ayn-rands-characters-do-you-resemble

According to this quiz, I most resemble Howard Roark. I can only assume he was a liberal antihero. I don't know, because I have never read a whole Ayn Rand rag.

1. I'm Catherine Halsey, whoever the hell that is.

I never got through an Ayn Rand novel, either.

10. You did good!

She's the social worker character Ayn Rand used to malign the Left. One of her straw persons.

3. "I got so sick of it I thought I'd run amuck and bash somebody's skull."

That was my excuse to the object who tried to get me to read 'The Fountainhead.,'

And also why I never got past the first twenty pages.

4. Dagny Taggart, without accepting the rape.

5. Ayn Rand was an icy hearted, mean-spirited old witch . . .

. . . and one whose life I would never celebrate. She gave us Greenspan, Libertarians and endless apologies for capitalism. I hope I don't resemble any of her characters, either in fiction or fact.

6. >>Libertarians

>>She gave us Greenspan, Libertarians and endless apologies for capitalism
Right Libertarians, that is. Who aren't as bad as conservatives, in my opinion.
Many Libertarians have been Socialist, and it didn't die with the Labour Anarchists around the time of the Great Depression.
Noam Chomsky for instance, is most certainly a Libertarian.

I myself am by far a Libertarian before a Leftist, but I'm not fond of Capitalism either. And am pretty darn left.
I think as insanely left as I am, holding sympathy for Left Communism and the like, Libertarianism is the word that clearly describes me and my viewpoints most.

Ayn Rand is a person I can actually agree with on a few things. And Max Stirner has got to be one of the thinkers I am most influenced by in my entire life. I can't think of much at all on the other hand, that I have in common with Right Wing non-Libertarians, such as Sarah Palin. She's just about nearly my antithesis, if she were any more right wing I'd pretty much proclaim her as my political antithesis.

Oh yes, I was going to do this quiz. Even though I hate quizilla.
Ellsworth Toohey, it says.

8. Interesting to see my thread still being discussed!

I get a kick out of the comments. :D

For the record, I haven't read more than about 15 pages, max, of anything Ayn Rand has written, mostly because it's bad writing. I have no idea who any of Ayn Rand's characters are, only, that the way I answered the quiz was the most similar to the way "Howard Roark" would have answered.

Edit to add: I know you had replied to someone else upthread. :)

9. Fransisco d'Anconia

never read any of her selection, but somehow I don't think I'm missing much.
