Ok, let me start, Integrity occurs when a man realizes he ""..may permit no breach between body and mind, between action and thought, between his life and his convictions—that, like a judge impervious to public opinion, he may not sacrifice his convictions to the wishes of others, be it the whole of mankind shouting pleas or threats against him...""
Galt’s Speech, ""For the New Intellectual""; 128; Ayn Rand
""The virtue involved in helping those one loves is not “selflessness” or “sacrifice,” but integrity. Integrity is loyalty to one’s convictions and values; it is the policy of acting in accordance with one’s values, of expressing, upholding and translating them into practical reality.""
""Integrity does not consist of loyalty to one’s subjective whims, but of loyalty to rational principles.""
""The Virtue of Selfishness""; Ayn Rand
This means definitely that integrity has a ""need for rules,"" the rules of reason, of logic, of unerring devotion to convictions. You get integrity by breaking rules, but you may have to make a few of those rules on your own and discard those of others. That is why some men take the path least (or never) walked, and end up being right when everyone is wrong.
