Jean-Paul Sartre
A lost battle is a battle one thinks one has lost.
Jean-Paul Sartre
There may be more beautiful times, but this one is ours.
Jean-Paul Sartre
That is exactly the writer's problem. What does literature stand for in a hungry world?
Jean-Paul Sartre
It is no longer possible to escape men. Farewell to the monsters, farewell to the saints. Farewell to pride. All that is left is men.
Jean-Paul Sartre
