We can all get more together than we can apart. And this is the way we gain power. Power is the ability to achieve purpose, power is the ability to effect change, and we need power.

We can all get more together than we can apart is a maxim of the hippie movement, which arose in the late 1960s. It was coined by John Lennon, who was part of that movement. The idea is that for an individual to achieve his or her goals, he or she needs to work with others. Not only is this true of people who are trying to succeed in business endeavors but it is true for many other aspects of life as well.
