Sartra's Unconscious Mind

Sarto: Most of the stuff we do is done without us directly reflecting on it. People use this unconscious mind as a scapegoat that they can evoke any time they want to justify horrible behaviour, he says. Sarto uses an example like say that you're walking out of a restaurant and you see a little girl bleeding out of her head on the sidewalk, looking for help. Now most of us, when faced with this situation, consciously think, oh, here's a girl that needs help. I'm a good person. The right thing to do here is to help this little girl. And then we do it.
