More quotes by Albert Camus
Gilbert Jonas, painter, believed in his star.... His own faith was not, however, without its virtues because it consisted in admitting, in some obscure way, that he would obtain many things without deserving them.
Albert Camus
It is not true that the heart wears out - but the body creates this illusion.
Albert Camus
I can feel this heart inside me and I conclude it exists. I can touch this world and I also conclude that it exists. All my knowledge ends at this point. The rest is hypothesis.
Albert Camus
Men are never really willing to die except for the sake of freedom: therefore they do not believe in dying completely.
Albert Camus
But - I cannot make a choice. I have my own sorrow, but I suffer with him, too I share his pain. I understand all - that is my trouble.
Albert Camus
We call first truths those we discover after all the others.
Albert Camus
Have you noticed that only death arouses our emotions? How we love thee friends who have just passed away, right? How we admire those master who no longer speak, their mouths full of dirt. We them we are not obligated.
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
After awhile you could get used to anything.
Albert Camus
It is impossible to give a clear account of the world, but art can teach us to reproduce it-just as the world reproduces itself in the course of its eternal gyrations. The primordial sea indefatigably repeats the same words and casts up the same astonished beings on the same sea-shore.
Albert Camus
All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning.
Albert Camus
Man is the only creature that refuses to be what he is.
Albert Camus
Every rebellion implies some kind of unity.
Albert Camus
I draw from the Absurd three consequences: my revolt, my liberty, my passion.
Albert Camus
He who despairs of the human condition is a coward, but he who has hope for it is a fool.
Albert Camus
Politics and the fate of mankind are formed by men without ideals and without greatness. Those who have greatness within them do not go in for politics.
Albert Camus
Liberty is dangerous.
Albert Camus
Old married people look so much alike that they have the same number of hairs in their ears.
Albert Camus
Love is the kind of illness that does not spare the intelligent or the dull.
Albert Camus
The only really committed artist is he who, without refusing to take part in the combat, at least refuses to join the regular armies and remains a freelance.
Albert Camus
