The following quote of Jean-Paul Sartre comes from his work, "Existentialism is a Humanism."?

“[…] Man is condemned to be free. Condemned, because he did not create himself, yet is nevertheless at liberty, and from the moment that he is thrown into this world he is responsible for everything he does”
