{{quotebox|The writings of existentialists such as Kierkegaard, Sartre and Camus reflect an [[epistemology]] that is not only based upon the criteria of [[rationalism]] or [[empiricism]]. Theirs is an appeal to the intuitive, as reflected by Sartre’s references to the “nausea” stirred in him by the contradictions and hypocrisy in human behavior. The same appeal to the intuitive can be found in Soren Kierkegaard’s notion of dread and in Albert Camus’ reflections on universal guilt.
