About This Quote

In Philosophy, existentialism is a philosophical movement that arose from the 19th century. In Existentialism, one's personal identity is distinct from their attributes and circumstances. In other words, one's existence precedes their attributes and circumstances. If a person is in a bad situation he or she may be considered bad but in a good situation they may be considered good. The key idea of existentialism is that humans should not judge themselves by external standards but should look inwardly and decide what meaning to give to their own lives.
