The Rebel (1951)

Notebooks (1942–1951)

Part 2: Metaphysical Rebellion
The Rebel (1951)

“When the throne of God is overturned, the rebel realizes that it is now his own responsibility to create the justice, order, and unity that he sought in vain within his own condition, and in this way to justify the fall of God. Then begins the desperate effort to create, at the price of crime and murder if necessary, the dominion of man.”
