if man has volition , let alone a will for power70 this can be undermined by the macrocosm , the state , which can conscript men into soldiers , and from the war , an opposing army can cleft a society , and upset the foundation that a man predicates his life on ; and as for the microcosm , it can be assumed that a sperm cell racing against others to reach an egg , if there is one , or a white blood cell encroaching on the bacterial invader that will be its prey thinks of itself , no different than the entire organism , as autonomous , not knowing how it is being used by the larger macrocosm .
