More quotes by Jean-Paul Sartre
In a word, man must create his own essence: it is in throwing himself into the world, suffering there, struggling there, that he gradually defines himself.
Jean-Paul Sartre
At that time [1954], as a result of political events, I was deeply preoccupied by my relations with the Communist Party.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Respectable society believed in God in order to avoid having to speak about him.
Jean-Paul Sartre
One is still what one is going to cease to be and already what one is going to become. One lives one's death, one dies one's life.
Jean-Paul Sartre
With despair, true optimism begins: the optimism of the man who expects nothing, who knows he has no rights and nothing coming to him, who rejoices in counting on himself alone and in acting alone for the good of all.
Jean-Paul Sartre
If I relegate impossible Salvation to the prop room, what remains? A whole man, composed of all men and as good as all of them and no better than any.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Why do you keep maintaining your ideas are right if you can't prove them?
Jean-Paul Sartre
Introspection is always retrospection
Jean-Paul Sartre
God is the solitude of men. There was only me: I alone decided to commit Evil alone, I invented Good. I am the one who cheated, I am the one who performed miracles, I am the one accusing myself today, I alone can absolve myself me, the man.
Jean-Paul Sartre
God is absence. God is the solitude of man.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Once freedom lights its beacon in man's heart, the gods are powerless against him.
Jean-Paul Sartre
It is enough that one man hate another for hate to gain, little by little, all mankind.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Things are entirely what they appear to be and behind them... there is nothing.
Jean-Paul Sartre
When the rich [and politically powerful] make war, it's the poor [and politically weak] who die.
Jean-Paul Sartre
The recent experiences of pocketbooks prove this. I have changed my public since my works have been published in a smaller format.
Jean-Paul Sartre
The existentialist says at once that man is anguish.
Jean-Paul Sartre
There may be more beautiful times, but this one is ours.
Jean-Paul Sartre
In the state I was in, if someone had come and told me I could go home quietly, that they would leave me my life whole, it would have left me cold: several hours or several years of waiting is all the same when you have lost the illusion of being eternal.
Jean-Paul Sartre
A kiss without a moustache, they said then, is like an egg without salt I will add to it: and it is like Good without Evil.
Jean-Paul Sartre
I considered calmly that I was born to write.
Jean-Paul Sartre
