We are all exceptional cases. We all want to appeal against something! Each of us insists on being innocent at all cost, even if he has to accuse the whole human race and heaven itself.
In Albert Camus' book "The Fall," he explores the idea that every individual perceives themselves as unique and deserving of special treatment. This sense of exceptionalism drives people to confront societal issues and seek justice or vindication, often feeling wronged by the world around them.
Camus also suggests that our desire to maintain innocence leads us to place blame beyond ourselves, sometimes onto humanity or even divine entities. This reflects a deep-seated need for self-justification and the lengths to which we will go to preserve our self-image, ultimately highlighting the complexities of human nature and morality.
