Jean-Paul Sartre Quotes
When I Was Little, My Aunt Bigeois Told Me "If You Look At Yourself Too Long In The Mirror, You'll See A Monkey." I Must Have Looked At Myself Even Longer Than That: What I See Is Well Below The Monkey, On The Fringe Of The Vegetable World, At The Level Of Jellyfish... The Eyes Especially Are Horrible Seen So Close. They Are Glassy, Soft, Blind, Red-rimmed, They Look Like Fish Scales... A Silky White Down Covers The Great Slopes Of The Cheeks, Two Hairs Protrude From The Nostrils: It Is A Geological Embossed Map. And, In Spite Of Everything, This Lunar World Is Familiar To Me. I Cannot Say I Recognize The Details. But The Whole Thing Gives Me An Impression Of Something Seen Before Which Stupefies Me.
