Albert Camus

Albert Camus
People believe a man is in distress because his loved one dies in one day. But his real pain is less futile: it is that he finds out that sadness too does not last. Even pain has no meaning.
Albert Camus
the one who doesnt play, doesnt win anything, but he actually looses somehting, {playing}
Albert Camus
I had the whole sky in my eyes and it was blue and gold.
Albert Camus
A taste for truth at any cost is a passion which spares nothing.
