Albert Camus

Rule: Start by looking for what is valid in every man.
Albert Camus
Image
Can one be a saint if God does not exist? That is the only concrete problem I know of today.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus

Albert Camus

“To think the way you do,” he said smiling, “you have to be a man who lives either on a tremendous despair, or on a tremendous hope.” “On both, perhaps.”
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Image
We rarely confide in those who are better than we are.
Albert Camus
Image
To remain a man in today's world, one must have not only unfailing energy and unwavering intensity, one must also have a little luck.
Albert Camus
Image
Mistakes are joyful, truth infernal.
Albert Camus
Image
Every ideology is contrary to human psychology.
Albert Camus
Image
In order to exist, man must rebel.
Albert Camus
Image
All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning. Great works are often born on a street corner or in a restaurant's revolving door.
Albert Camus
Image
But who would dare condemn me in this world with no judges, where no one is innocent!
Albert Camus
Image
Rebellion, in man, is the refusal to be treated as an object and to be reduced to simple historical terms. It is the affirmation of a nature common to all men, which eludes the world of power.
Albert Camus
Image
He had opened his heart to the sublime indifference of the universe
Albert Camus
Image
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
Image
Whereas the Greeks gave to will the boundaries of reason, we have come to put the will's impulse in the very center of reason, which has, as a result, become deadly.
Albert Camus
