Equality shows that purpose is a reason to live. He shows that purpose is a reason to live by following his heart in terms of getting free from his society.
Equality believes that his purpose is to free himself and discover the other wonders of the world that have not been discovered since the Unmentionable Times.

''We thought of our glass box and of our light and we forgot all else.'' (Rand 63) Even when he was being lashed to death, he would not give up the
