Howard Roark Analysis

226 Words1 Pages
Howard Roark serves to support the impossible notion that one does not have to compromise morality for success or vice versa. He is the ideal man who embodies a strong commitment to his morals and his own independent thoughts. Roark never fails to stand by the integrity of his buildings nor his own integrity, as seen during the Cortlandt Trial. He never sacrifices his designs to gain work. He does not want to work if he has to give up his designs to conform to the demands of the people. He refuses to compromise himself for other people and he never allows others to make decisions for him because he is in control. For Roark it is “[His] work done [his] way. A private, personal, selfish, egotistical motivation” that serves to drive him forward
