A recent email discussion on Fetlife brought up this quotation again…

"I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine" - John Galt from Atlas Shrugged, page 676 by Ayn Rand

I have discussed it from the dominant and submissive perspectives. If you haven’t seen them you may want to check out the posts.
