" "This feeling of adventure definitely does not come from events: I have proved it. It's rather the way in which the moments are linked together. I think this is what happens: you suddenly feel that time is passing, that each instant leads to another, this one to another one, and so on; that each instant is annihilated, and that it isn't worth while to hold it back, etc., etc. And then you attribute this property to events which appear to you in the instants; what belongs to the form you carry over to the content. You talk a lot about this amazing flow of time but you hardly see it. You see a woman, you think that one day she'll be old, only you don't see her grow old. But there are moments when you think you see her grow old and feel yourself growing old with her: this is the feeling of adventure.

Additional quotes by Jean-Paul Sartre
Ağacın çevresinde depreşip duran bütün bu var olanlar, hiçbir yerden gelmiyor ve hiçbir yere gitmiyorlardı. Birden var oluyorlar ve sonra birden varoluştan kesiliyorlardı: Varoluş bellekten yoksundur, kaybolmuşlarla ilgili tek bir anısı bile yoktur. Her yanda varoluş, bitimsiz, fazladan, her yerde ve her zaman varoluş; ancak yine varoluşla sınırlanan varoluş!

the humanist philosopher who bends over his brothers like an elder brother who is conscious of his responsibilities; the humanist who loves men as they are, the one who loves them as they ought to be, the one who wants to save them with their consent, and the one who will save them in spite of themselves, the one who wants to create myths, and the one who is satisfied with the old myths, the one who loves man for his death, the one who loves man for his life, the happy humanist who always knows what to say to make people laugh, the gloomy humanist whom you usually meet at wakes. They all hate one another : as individuals, of course, not as men.
