More quotes by Jean-Paul Sartre
When one does nothing, one believes oneself responsible for everything.
Jean-Paul Sartre
it was odd, he thought, that a man could hate himself as though he were someone else.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Man is nothing else but what he makes of himself. [It is a matter of choice, not chance.] Such is the first principle of existentialism.
Jean-Paul Sartre
A lost battle is a battle one thinks one has lost.
Jean-Paul Sartre
your judgement judges you and defines you
Jean-Paul Sartre
I am neither virgin nor priest enough to play with the inner life.
Jean-Paul Sartre
If I did not publish this autobiography [Les Mots] sooner and in its most radical form, it is because I considered it exaggerated.
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
One should commit no stupidity twice, the variety of choice is, in the end, large enough.
Jean-Paul Sartre
It's just what people do when they're getting old, when they're sick of themselves and their life they think of money and take care of themselves.
Jean-Paul Sartre
I construct my memories with my present. I am lost, abandoned in the present. I try in vain to rejoin the past: I cannot escape.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Nothingness lies coiled in the heart of being - like a worm.
Jean-Paul Sartre
I can always choose, but I ought to know that if I do not choose, I am still choosing.
Jean-Paul Sartre
So much torture, bloodshed, deceit. You cannot make your young people practice torture twenty-four hours a day and not expect to pay a price for it.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Abjection is a methodological conversion, like Cartesian doubt and Husserlian epoche: it establishes the world as a closed system which consciousness regards from without, in the manner of divine understanding.
Jean-Paul Sartre
The revolution you dream of is not ours. You don't want to change the world you want to blow it up.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Generosity is nothing else than a craze to possess. All which I abandon, all which I give, I enjoy in a higher manner through the fact that I give it away. To give is to enjoy possessively the object which one gives.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Perhaps its inevitable, perhaps one has to choose between being nothing at all and impersonating what one is.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Respectable society believed in God in order to avoid having to speak about him.
Jean-Paul Sartre
So long as one believes in God, one has the right to do the Good in order to be moral.
Jean-Paul Sartre
