Sometimes the truth is too simple for intellectuals.

---

What is life but an unpleasant interruption to a peaceful nonexistence.

---

We are our choices.

---

Only the guy who isn't rowing has time to rock the boat.

---

In a word, man must create his own essence: it is in throwing himself into the world, suffering there, struggling there, that he gradually defines himself.

---

We only become what we are by the radical and deep-seated refusal of that which others have made of us.

---

Man is nothing else but what he purposes, he exists only in so far as he realizes himself, he is therefore nothing else but the sum of his actions, nothing else but what his life is.

---

Man is condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does.

---

We make our own hell out of the people around us.

---

There may be more beautiful times, but this one is ours.
