God is dead. let us not understand by this that he does not exist or even that he no longer exists. he is dead. he spoke to us and is silent. we no longer have anything but his cadaver. perhaps he slipped out of the world, somewhere else like the soul of a dead man. perhaps he was only a dream...god is dead.

God Is Dead. Let Us Not Understand

Jean-Paul Sartre
God is dead. let us not understand by this that he does not exist or even that he no longer exists. he is dead. he spoke to us and is silent. we no longer have anything but his cadaver. perhaps he slipped out of the world, somewhere else like the soul of a dead man. perhaps he was only a dream...god is dead.

More From Jean-Paul Sartre

Dear god," she prayed, "let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. let me be gay; let me be sad. let me be cold; let me be warm. let me be hungry...have too much to eat. let me be ragged or well dressed. let me be sincere - be deceitful. let me be truthful; let me be a liar. let me be honorable and let me sin. only let me be something every blessed minute. and when i sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.
Dream Prayer Liars
Dear god, i prayed, all unafraid (as we're inclined to do), i do not need a handsome man but let him be like you; i do not need one big and strong nor yet so very tall, nor need he be some genius, or wealthy, lord, at all; but let his head be high, dear god, and let his eye be clear, his shoulders straight, whate'er his state, whate'er his earthly sphere; and let his face have character, a ruggedness if soul, and let his whole life show, dear god, a singleness of goal; then when he comes (as he will come) with quiet eyes aglow, i'll understand that he's the man i prayed for long ago.
Strong Character Eye
Evil does not exist sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself. evil is simply the absence of god. it is just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of god. god did not create evil. evil is not like faith, or love that exist just as does light and heat. evil is the result of what happens when man does not have god's love present in his heart. it's like the cold that comes when there is no heat or the darkness that comes when there is no light.

Does big brother exist?" "of course he exists. the party exists. big brother is the embodiment of the party." "does he exist in the same way as i exist?" "you do not exist.

Let others lead small lives, but not you. let others argue over small things, let them complain over what might have been, but not you. let others cry over small hurts, let them be discouraged, let them be revengeful and vindictive, but not you. let others leave their future in someone else's hands, let them become materialistic and empty, but not you. let others become ungrateful and stop praying, but not you! let others give up, but not you! for you know in whom you believe and you know that he is always able. now, that's you!
Motivational Hurt Giving Up
For things remain possible, even if god does not choose them. indeed, even if god does not will something to exist, it is possible for it to exist, since, by its nature, it could exist if god were to will it to exist.

The individual is the true reality of life. a cosmos in himself, he does not exist for the state, nor for that abstraction called "society," or the "nation," which is only a collection of individuals.

Happiness does not depend on your circumstances; it depends on your will. it's a choice that you make.

Imitate time; it destroys everything slowly; it undermines, it wears away, it detaches, it does not wrench.

What works for men does not always work for women, because success and likability are positively correlated for men and negatively correlated for women. that's what the research shows. as a man gets more successful, everyone is rooting for him. as a woman gets more successful, both men and women like her less.
