Like all dreamers I confuse disenchantment with truth.

Jean-Paul Sartre

Nothing happens while you live. The scenery changes, people come in and go out, that’s all. There are no beginnings. Days are tacked on to days without rhyme or reason, an interminable, monotonous addition.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Beginning Change Live People Reason Yourself
I’d come to realize that all our troubles spring from our failure to use plain, clear-cut language.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Failure Language Ourselves Spring
It is therefore senseless to think of complaining since nothing foreign has decided what we feel, what we live, or what we are.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Decision Feeling Live Thinking
He is always becoming, and if it were not for the contingency of death, he would never end.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Man is nothing else but what he makes of himself.

In love, one and one are one.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Life begins on the other side of despair.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Beginning Life
One always dies too soon – or too late. And yet one’s whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are — your life, and nothing else.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

I want to leave, to go somewhere where I should be really in my place, where I would fit in, but my place is nowhere; I am unwanted.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

I’ve dropped out of their hearts like a little sparrow fallen from its nest. So gather me up, dear, fold me to your heart – and you’ll see how nice I can be.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Heart Myself
As for me, I am mean: that means that I need the suffering of others to exist. A flame. A flame in their hearts. When I am all alone, I am extinguished.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Alone Existence Heart Myself Suffering
I wanted my own words. But the ones I use have been dragged through I don’t know how many consciences.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Myself Oneself Word
I never could bear the idea of anyone’s expecting something from me. It always made me want to do the opposite.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE

Expectation Ideas Myself Opposite
What is important is not what happens to us, but how we respond to what happens to us.
