Hardly. The power of life is to have the power to enforce one's decision.
The pleasure of life is to be able to choose. The privilege of life is to have the power to enforce one's decision. The power of life, I think, is the ability to question, to challenge and to overthrow previous trains of thought. And as Marxism does put it, the process of a thesis and an anti-thesis clashing to form a synthesis; constant renewal, I think its this conflict that's the beauty in life!
