about Existentialism Man is nothing else but what he makes of himself. Such is the first principle of existentialism. Jean-Paul Sartre I have an existential map; it has 'you are here' written all over it. Stephen Wright Existentialism is about being a saint without God; being your own hero, without all the sanction and support of religion or society. Anita Brookner Existentialism means that no one else can take a bath for you. Delmore Schwartz Existentialism isn't so atheistic that it wears itself out showing that God doesn't exist. Rather, it declares that even if God did exist, that would change nothing. Jean-Paul Sartre There are two kinds of existentialist; first, those who are Christian...and on the other hand the atheistic existentialists, among whom...I class myself. What they have in common is that they think that existence precedes essence, or, if you prefer, that subjectivity must be the turning point. Jean-Paul Sartre | |
