Jean-Paul Sartre

Jean-Paul Sartre
Better a good journalist than a poor assassin.
Jean-Paul Sartre
My eyes feel all soft, all soft as flesh. I'm going to sleep.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Man is fully responsible for his nature and his choices.
Jean-Paul Sartre
It is the same: a chosen one is a man whom God's finger crushes against the wall.

In Guinea I could read [Franz] Kafka. I re-discover in him my own discomfort.
Jean-Paul Sartre
