Famous quotes containing the words collective and/or action:

    The last man of the world-city no longer wants to live—he may cling to life as an individual, but as a type, as an aggregate, no, for it is a characteristic of this collective existence that it eliminates the terror of death.

    Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
