Excuse me, I must allow input to my system? It is so bad :(, I don't like to allow everyone.

You always need to allow some input as well in order for the Tor guard node to
talk to your computer. Stateful Inspection is used for this. Here's a complete
ruleset to accomplish what you asked for. All output is allowed, but no input,
except it belongs to some output your computer previously did.
# Stateful inspection for input and output
iptables -A INPUT -j ACCEPT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
iptables -A OUTPUT -j ACCEPT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
# Allow loopback traffic
iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
# Reject any other input
iptables -A INPUT -j REJECT
# Accept all output
iptables -A OUTPUT -j ACCEPT
Note that you also want to accout for IPv6 using ip6tables. It depends on your
network though.
