Second Note to “Beman Ay Shab”

Camus added in regards to the Don Juan: “I see Don Juan in a cell of one of those Spanish monasteries lost on a hilltop. And if he contemplates anything at all, it is not the ghosts of past loves, but perhaps, through a narrow slit in the sun-baked wall, some silent Spanish plain, a noble, soulless land in which he recognizes himself.”

That is indeed the ultimate end which the Don Juan himself envisioned for himself!
