All that we are is a result of what we have thought.

Purposeless Purpose


“And the worst of it was, and the root of it all, that it was all in accord with the normal fundamental laws of over-acute consciousness, and with the inertia that was the direct result of those laws, and that consequently one was not only unable to change but could do absolutely nothing.”
This book reminds me of the theme of the absurd as seen in The Stranger. It doesn’t surprise me to find similarities between the two, as I discovered Notes from the Underground by researching existentialist novels like The Stranger.
