More quotes by Jean-Paul Sartre
For the time being I have seen enough of living things, of dogs, of men, of all flabby masses which move spontaneously.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Nicias, do you think you can erase with good deeds the wrongs you committed against your mother? What good deed will ever reach her? Her soul is a scorching noon time, without a single breath of a breeze, nothing moves, nothing changes, nothing lives there a great emaciated sun, an immobile sun eternally consumes her.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Fear? If I have gained anything by damning myself, it is that I no longer have anything to fear.
Jean-Paul Sartre
I do not give a damn about the dead. They died for the [Communist] Party and the Party can decide what it wants. I practice a live man's politics, for the living.
Jean-Paul Sartre
You see, the contemporary writer must write through his intimations of unease, while trying to elucidate them.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Everything has been figured out, except how to live.
Jean-Paul Sartre
I can receive nothing more from these tragic solitudes than a little empty purity.
Jean-Paul Sartre
I tell you in truth: all men are Prophets or else God does not exist.
Jean-Paul Sartre
My eyes feel all soft, all soft as flesh. I'm going to sleep.
Jean-Paul Sartre
We do not judge the people we love.
Jean-Paul Sartre
You take souls for vegetables.... The gardener can decide what will become of his carrots but no one can choose the good of others for them.
Jean-Paul Sartre
A man is involved in life, leaves his impress on it, and outside of that there is nothing.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Il n'y a pas d'autre univers qu'un univers humain, l'univers de la subjectivite humaine. There is no other universe except the human universe, the universe of human subjectivity.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Life is nothing until it is lived but it is yours to make sense of, and the of it is nothing other than the sense you choose.
Jean-Paul Sartre
There is no book of mine that I reject. That does not mean that I find them good.
Jean-Paul Sartre
She suffers as a miser. She must be miserly with her pleasures, as well. I wonder if sometimes she doesn't wish she were free of this monotonous sorrow, of these mutterings which start as soon as she stops singing, if she doesn't wish to suffer once and for all, to drown herself in despair. In any case, it would be impossible for her: she is bound.
Jean-Paul Sartre
the worst part about being lied to is knowing you werent worth the truth
Jean-Paul Sartre
I am responsible for everything... except my very responsibility.
Jean-Paul Sartre
This then is the age of reason.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Everything comes to us from others. To Be is to belong to someone.
Jean-Paul Sartre
