Read the excerpt from Anthem. Here, on this mountain, I and my sons and my chosen friends shall build our new land and our fort.

And it will become as the heart of the earth, lost and hidden at first, but beating, beating louder each day. And word of it will reach every corner of the earth. And the roads of the world will become as veins which will carry the best of the world’s blood to my threshold. And all my brothers, and the Councils of my brothers, will hear of it, but they will be impotent against me. The imagery of “the heart” suggests what relationship between the society the narrator plans to build on the mountain and the outside world?

The imagery of "the heart" suggests that the relationship between the society the narrator plans to build and the outside world will be the following: membership for the new society on the mountain will be open to anyone.

In chapter twelve of Anthem, which is the chapter from which the excerpt was extracted, Equality 7-2521 and the Golden One decide that they will launch a new race in the abandoned house they found from the Unmentionable Times. This new race that they vow to create will accept individualism, and they intend to make it the heart of the earth, i.e., <em>the central piece of the planet, </em>the core that will keep life flowing for humanity (much like a heart keeps the body alive by pumping blood). A humanity that believes in individualism, the word "I", and the supremacy of the ego.
