More quotes by Albert Camus

Albert Camus
If those whom we begin to love could know us as we were before meeting them they could perceive what they have made of us.
Albert Camus
We can't do without dominating others or being served.... The essential thing, in sum, is being able to get angry without the other person being able to answer back.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
No matter how the sun shone, the sea held forth no more promises.
Albert Camus
We must stitch up what has been torn apart, render justice imaginable in the world which is so obviously unjust, make happiness meaningful for nations poisoned by the misery of this century. Naturally, it is a superhuman task. But tasks are called superhuman when men take a long time to complete them, that is all.
Albert Camus
Even when one sits in the prisoner's dock, it is interesting to hear talk about oneself.
Albert Camus
Beginning to think is beginning to be undermined.
Albert Camus
The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.
Albert Camus
