Jean-Paul Sartre
Being is. Being is in-itself. Being is what it is.
Jean-Paul Sartre

Jean-Paul Sartre
Anything, anything would be better than this agony of mind, this creeping pain that gnaws and fumbles and caresses one and never hurts quite enough.
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
Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you.
Jean-Paul Sartre
When I can't see myself in the mirror, I can't even feel myself, and I begin to wonder if I exist at all.
Jean-Paul Sartre
It is the same: a chosen one is a man whom God's finger crushes against the wall.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Several hours or several years make no difference once you have lost eternity.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Nothingness lies coiled in the heart of being - like a worm.
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
A man is involved in life, leaves his impress on it, and outside of that there is nothing.
Jean-Paul Sartre
