Sartre's Sassy Sayings

Here are some of Jean-Paul Sartre's most famous quotes, with a dash of snark:

• Man is condemned to freedom.
• Freedom is what we are, and what we are not.
• There is no reality, only a series of subjective experiences.
• Man is the only animal to be free because he is the only animal that knows he is free.
• We are our own worst enemy.
