More quotes by Albert Camus
I've seen of enough of people who die for an idea. I don't believe in heroism I know it's easy and I've learned it can be murderous. What interests me is living and dying for what one loves.
Albert Camus
My great idea is that we must forgive the Pope. First of all, he needs it more than anyone else. Besides, it is the only way of placing oneself above him.
Albert Camus
A taste for truth at any cost is a passion which spares nothing.
Albert Camus
Nothing can discourage the appetite for divinity in the heart of man.
Albert Camus
Every revolutionary ends up either by becoming an oppressor or a heretic.
Albert Camus
From the evening breeze to this hand on my shoulder, everything has its truth.
Albert Camus
Because there is nothing here than invites us to cherish unhappy lovers. Nothing is more vain than to die for love. What we ought to do is live.
Albert Camus
I do not believe in God and I am not an atheist.
Albert Camus
Happiness is generous. It does not subsist on destruction.
Albert Camus
I have the loftiest idea, and the most passionate one, of art. Much too lofty to agree to subject it to anything. Much too passionate to want to divorce it from anything.
Albert Camus
If something is going to happen to me, I want to be there.
Albert Camus
Your successes and happiness are forgiven you only if you generously consent to share them.
Albert Camus
Thinking of the future, establishing aims for oneself, having preferences-all this presupposes a belief in freedom, even if one occasionally ascertains that one doesn't feel it.
Albert Camus
What must be remembered in any case is that secret complicity that joins the logical and the everyday to the tragic.
Albert Camus
Without freedom there is no art.
Albert Camus
Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
Albert Camus
One might think, that a period which, within fifty years, uproots, enslaves or kills seventy million human beings, should only, and forthwith, be condemned. But also its guilt must be understood.
Albert Camus
When a war breaks out, people say: It's too stupid it can't last long. But though a war may well be too stupid, that doesn't prevent its lasting. Stupidity has a knack of getting its way as we should see if we were not always so much wrapped up in ourselves.
Albert Camus
Fancy language, like poplin, too often conceals an eczema.
Albert Camus
And indeed it could be said that once the faintest stirring of hope became possible, the dominion of plague was ended.
Albert Camus
