3rd most-quoted character in The Fountainhead (1949): in 3 of its 14 quotes
I feel it is my duty to offer you my advice.
Gail Wynand Whom do you recommend?
The rising star of the profession, Peter Keating. No other architect can equal his ability. That Mr. Wynant, is my sincere opinion.
Gail Wynand I believe you.
You do?
Gail Wynand Of course, but Mr. Toohey, why should I consider your opinion?
Well, after all, I am the architectural critic of The Banner.
Gail Wynand My dear Toohey, don't confuse me with my readers!
I'll marry you. Don't you want to ask me any questions?
Gail Wynand No.
Thank you. You're making it easier for me.
Gail Wynand Whatever your reason, I shall accept it. What I want to find in our marriage will remain my own concern. I exact no promises and impose no obligations. Incidentally, since it is of no importance to you, I love you.
Gail Wynand Build it as a monument to that spirit which is yours - and could have been mine.
