Jean-Paul Sartre. Nausea (№ 17097)

I had no adventures. In my life happened stories, incidents, events - anything. But not the adventure. And it's not in the words, I begin to understand it. Without any apparent reason, I suddenly realized that I was fooling myself for ten years. Adventures are in books. However, everything that is said in the books could happen in life, but not so. Namely, how it happens, I was fond of.
