More quotes by Albert Camus
Should I kill myself, or have a cup of coffee?
Albert Camus
Man stands face to face with the irrational. He feels within him his longing for happiness and for reason. The absurd is born of this confrontation between the human need and the unreasonable silence of the world.
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
Some are created to love, while the others - to live.
Albert Camus
Integrity needs no rules.
Albert Camus
In truth, I was so good at being a man, with such plenitude and simplicity, that I thought I was something of a superman.
Albert Camus
Yes, and when the love of life disappears, no meaning can console us.
Albert Camus
The myth of unlimited production brings war in its train as inevitably as clouds announce a storm.
Albert Camus
The future is the only transcendental value for men without God.
Albert Camus
I like these people swarming on the sidewalks, wedged into a little space of houses and canals, hemmed in by fogs, cold lands, and the sea streaming like a wet wash. I like them, for they are double. They are here and elsewhere.
Albert Camus
When love ceases to be tragic it is something else and the individual again throws himself in search of tragedy.
Albert Camus
An intellectual? Yes. And never deny it. An intellectual is someone whose mind watches itself. I like this, because I am happy to be both halves, the watcher and the watched. Can they be brought together? This is a practical question. We must get down to it. I despise intelligence really means: I cannot bear my doubts.
Albert Camus
From Paul to Stalin, the popes who have chosen Caesar have prepared the way for Caesars who quickly learn to despise popes.
Albert Camus
For who would dare to assert that eternal happiness can compensate for a single moment's human suffering
Albert Camus
Freedom is not a reward or a decoration that is celebrated with champagne...Oh no! It's a...long distance race, quite solitary and very exhausting.
Albert Camus
The true work of art is always on the human scale. It is essentially the one that says, 'less.
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
There are some individuals who have too strong a craving, a will, and a nostalgia for happiness ever to reach it. They always retain a bitter and passionate aftertaste, and that's the best they can hope for.
Albert Camus
I was comfortable in all, I admit, but at the same time, nothing satisfied me. Each joy made me seek another.
Albert Camus
The world is unimportant and whoever recognizes this conquers his liberty.
Albert Camus
