"Self is the great antichrist and anti-God in the world, that sets up itself above all else."

Previous Quote

They [Americans] want to believe that Good and Evil can be defined in precise categories, that Good is already, or will be easily achieved. ... if this optimism appears too superficial, they will try to create a kind of anti-God: the U.S.S.R. That is Evil, and it only needs to be annihilated to re-establish the reign of Good.

— Simone de Beauvoir
