Imagine a life where your thoughts and beliefs no longer show any sense of desire or feelings‚ as to where all forms of originality have been lost. All live under the idea of “one in all‚ all in one”(Rand‚ 19). Minds of the citizens of the Anthem society are formed to think‚ feel‚ speak as one; all equal and no individuality‚ all are one.
