CNF simplification

Question

I would like to know if it is possible to simplify the CNF equation. I have this equation - $$ (x_{1} \lor x_2 \lor \lnot x_3 \lor \lnot x_4) \land (x_1 \lor \lnot x_2 \lor x_3 \lor \lnot x_4) \land (x_1 \lor \lnot x_2 \lor \lnot x_3 \lor x_4) \land (x_1 \lor \lnot x_2 \lor \lnot x_3 \lor \lnot x_4) \land (\lnot x_1 \lor x_2 \lor x_3 \lor \lnot x_4) \land (\lnot x_1 \lor x_2 \lor \lnot x_3 \lor x_4) \land (\lnot x_1 \lor x_2 \lor \lnot x_3 \lor \lnot x_4) \land (\lnot x_1 \lor \lnot x_2 \lor x_3 \lor x_4) \land (\lnot x_1 \lor \lnot x_2 \lor x_3 \lor \lnot x_4) \land (\lnot x_1 \lor \lnot x_2 \lor \lnot x_3 \lor x_4) \land (\lnot x_1 \lor \lnot x_2 \lor \lnot x_3 \lor \lnot x_4) $$ Thanks for help :)
