The Fountainhead was the book Sawyer read when separated from Kate. It is also my favorite book. The main characters are Howard Roark and Dominique Francon. They are in love, but he lets her go for some long years, because she is afraid of the world's and other people's power to crush everything that is important to her.

I have taken out some quotes from the book, simplified them a little bit and made a video with Sawyer and Kate.

Here are full quotes I have used:

"Why do you always stare at me?" she asked sharply. She thought with relief that words were the best means of estrangement. She had denied everything they both knew by naming it wrong.

"We never need to say anything to each other when we're together. This is - for the time when we won't be together. I love you, Dominique. As selfishly as the fact that I exist. As selfishly as my lungs breath air. The kind of surrender I could have from you now would give me nothing but an empty hulk. If I demanded it, I'd destroy you. That's why I won't stop you. I'll let you go. I don't know how I'll live through tonight, but I will. I want you whole, as I am, as you'll remain in the battle you've chosen. You must learn not to be afraid of the world. When you have, you'll come back to me. They won't destroy me. And they won't destroy you. I'll wait for you. I love you. I'm saying this now for all the years we'll have to wait. I love you"

But the thought of her remained. He watched it with curiosity. It was strange to be conscious of another person's existence, to feel it as a close, urgent necessity; a necessity without qualifications, neither pleasant nor painful, merely final like an ultimatum. It was important to know that she existed in the world; it was important to think of her, of how she had awakened this morning, of how she moved, with her body still his, now his forever, of what she thought.

Then he kissed her and let her go.

  • God, this was exquisite, thank you so much for making this, And for "getting it".

  • @Borstasha Thank you for "getting it" together! Hah =) That was a wonderful compliment, thanks. =)

  • I 'm crying over this. this is amazing and the quotes....OMG ç__ç

    i have to read this book. skate <3

  • @danybi89 Thank you very much! =) Read the book if you have any time to spare. It is not about love, but the love story in it is more than you can hope for. As was Sawyer's and Kate's.

  • I think the finale itself was written with the goal of Elsworth Toohey (from the same book) - to destroy everything that has a smallest potential of being majestic, because it scares all the masses which are uncapable of being great. The whole last episode gave me shivers, but in such a way that I don't want to experience it anymore. All the beautiful stories destroyed and crushed at the feat of a non-hero. I stop now =) Sawyer and Kate live!

  • @Zopranish Sawyer and Kate live! =D

  • Wow. That was so beautiful, and so them. Thank you :)

  • I think that Sawyer and Kate have escaped before the finale to a nice place for them both. And were very much amused to watch how the stand-ins for each of them acted those horrible love stories with Jack and Juliet. :D If Lost was a real life story, it would be impossible for them not to be together.

see all

  • I found the fountainhead because of Lost (thanks Sawyer, haha), both are wonderful!

  • i can't stop laughing. this video is precisely why the tooheys of the world will always win....do you guys even understand what the book is about? huh? i suppose all you can say is that it FEELS important and everybody is TALKING about it.....and, of course, that some of the quotes can be applied to the "romance" of these pigs too. what a waste.

  • Looter, you appropriate video that isn't yours and combine it with words that aren't yours, coupled with music you didn't write. Hypocrisy at it's finest.

  • i have finished reading the Fountain Head, and was feeling so lost.

    I typed "the fountainhead" to find this video. It is amusing to see another "creator" among youtube, which I think is a rarity.

    Shame that I haven't finished Lost season 6 yet. Thank you for the video.
