One must have at least a readiness to love the other person, broadly speaking, if one is to be able to understand him.
Rollo MayTags: love existentialism
When we are dealing with human beings, no truth has reality by itself; it is always dependent upon the reality of the immediate relationship.
Rollo MayTags: meaning existentialism relationship
One must not let oneself be misled: they say 'Judge not!' but they send to Hell everything that stands in their way.
Friedrich NietzscheTags: judgement existentialism
There can be no question of holding forth on ethics. I have seen people behave badly with great morality and I note every day that integrity has no need of rules
Albert CamusTags: morality existentialism
Artistic symbols and myths speak out of the primordial, preconscious realm of the mind which is powerful and chaotic. Both symbol and myth are ways of bringing order and form into this chaos.

Without awareness, we are not truly alive.
James F.T. BugentalTags: existentialism self-awareness
Today, however, we are having a hard time living because we are so bent on outwitting death.
Simone de BeauvoirTags: death existentialism
man is free, in so far as he has the power of contradicting himself and his essential nature. Man is free even from his freedom; that is, he can surrender his humanity
Paul TillichTags: freedom existentialism
A freedom which is interested only in denying freedom must be denied. And it is not true that the recognition of the freedom of others limits my own freedom: to be free is not to have the power to do anything you like; it is to be able to surpass the given toward an open future; the existence of others as a freedom defines my situation and is even the condition of my own freedom. I am oppressed if I am thrown into prison, but not if I am kept from throwing my neighbor into prison.
Simone de BeauvoirTags: morality ethics existentialism
Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us; nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth.... Through words and concepts we shall never reach beyond the wall off relations, to some sort of fabulous primal ground of things.
Friedrich NietzscheTags: existentialism truths
