Additional quotes by Jean-Paul Sartre

I found the human heart empty and insipid everywhere except in books.

The live dead-man is dead as a producer and alive insofar as he consumes

My passion was dead. For years it had rolled over and submerged me; now I felt empty. But that wasn't the worst: before me, posed with a sort of indolence, was a voluminous, insipid idea. I did not see clearly what it was, but it sickened me so much I couldn't look at it.

"L'importance n'est pas ce que l'on fait de l'Homme, mais ce qu'il fait de ce que l'on a fait de lui". - Jean-Paul Sartre
