The existentialist

The existentialist

Summary

"The existentialist stands for an exploration and acceptance of individual freedom, responsibility, and the inherent meaninglessness of existence. This quote advocates for the philosophical view that humans have the ability and responsibility to create their own purpose and meaning in life, rather than rely on external factors or predetermined truths. It encourages individuals to confront the uncertainty and absurdity of life, embrace their autonomy, and make choices that align with their own values and desires, ultimately striving for authenticity and self-transformation."
