>I gave Maurice Barres a spanking. We were three soldiers and one of us had a hole in the middle of his face. Maurice Barres came up to us and said, “That’s fine!” and he gave each of us a small bouquet of violets. “I don’t know where to put them,” said the soldier with the hole in his head. Then Maurice Barres said, “Put them in the hole you have in your head.” The soldier answered, “I’m going to stick them up your ass.” And we turned over Maurice Barres and took his pants off. He had a cardinal’s red robe on under his trousers. We lifted up the robe and Maurice Barres began to shout: “Look out! I’ve got on trousers with foot-straps.” But we spanked him until he bled and then we took the petals of violets and drew the face of Deroulede on his backside.

>The existentialist... finds it extremely embarassing that God does not exist, for there disappears with Him all possibility of finding values in an intelligible heaven. There can no longer be any good a priori, since there is no infinite and perfect consciousness to think it. It is nowhere written that "the good" exists, that one must be honest or must not lie, since we are now upon the plan where there are only men. Dostoievsky once wrote "If God did not exist, everything would be permitted"; and that, for existentialism, is the starting point. Everything is indeed permitted if God does not exist, and man is in consequence forlorn, for he cannot find anything to depend upon either within or outside himself. He discovers forthwith, that he is without excuse.
Why don't the New Atheists accept this?

How can someone be like this? What can you be so intelligent and yet--so degenerate?

where are all these fucking positivists coming from?

why do assholes have so much trouble dealing with the subjective and facticity?

not to brag but i've had no trouble with this shit ever since i, you know, developed a theory of mind by the age of 4

"Fuck my existence."
-Satre

I'm writing a paper on Sartre's idea of love which is stated in "Being and Nothingness".
Could someone please name a couple of Sartre's critics or appreciators regarding this specific subject?

have you read "Being and Nothingness" yet?

i have encountered the idea of authenticity (in the context of existentialism) in numerous conversations recently, but im not yet hip to any of the literature that discusses it. what are some definitive texts i should read to get a better understanding of the idea?

There was a philosopher from France
Who let others into his girl's pants
His eyes were lazy
His philosophy hazy
But people still listen to his rants
