Critique of Dialectical Reason (1960)

“As for the square at Meknes, where I used to go every day, it's even simpler: I do not see it at all anymore.

Being and Nothingness (1943)

“For the moment, the jazz is playing; there is no melody, just notes, a myriad of tiny tremors. The notes know no rest, an inflexible order gives birth to them then destroys them, without ever leaving them the chance to recuperate and exist for themselves….

I must accept their death; I must even want that death: I know of few more bitter or intense impressions.”
