Jean-Paul Sartre
A good hanging now and then -- that entertains folk in the provinces and robs death of its glamour.
Jean-Paul Sartre
It is meaningless that we are born, it is meaningless that we die.
Jean-Paul Sartre
When one loves animals and children too much, one loves them against human beings.
Jean-Paul Sartre
You are -- your life, and nothing else.
Jean-Paul Sartre

Jean-Paul Sartre
