"The absurd man will not commit suicide; he wants to live, without
relinquishing any of his certainty, without a future, without hope,
without illusions, and without resignation either. He stares at death
with passionate attention and this fascination liberates him. He
experiences the "divine irresponsibility" of the condemned man."
Sartre analysis of Mersault, in Literary and Philosophical Essays,
1943
