More quotes by Albert Camus
A nihilist is not one who believes in nothing , but one who does not believe in what exists.
Albert Camus
I have always felt I lived on the high seas, threatened, at the heart of a royal happiness.
Albert Camus
The realization that life is absurd and cannot be an end, but only a beginning. This is a truth nearly all great minds have taken as their starting point. It is not this discovery that is interesting, but theconsequences and rules of action drawn from it.
Albert Camus
Where there is no hope, we must invent it.
Albert Camus
Integrity has no need of rules.
Albert Camus
Happiness is not everything and men have their duties. Mine is to find my mother, a homeland
Albert Camus
I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live as if there isn't and to die to find out that there is.
Albert Camus
The truth is that everyone is bored, and devotes himself to cultivating habits.
Albert Camus
To be famous, in fact, one has only to kill one's landlady.
Albert Camus
For if I try to seize this self of which I feel sure, if I try to define and to summarize it, it is nothing but water slipping through my fingers.
Albert Camus
Men die and they are not happy.
Albert Camus
To assert in any case that a man must be absolutely cut off from society because he is absolutely evil amounts to saying that society is absolutely good, and no-one in his right mind will believe this today.
Albert Camus
The end of their passion consists of loving uselessly at the moment when it is pointless.
Albert Camus
Absurd- that is the light mind that establishes its own borders.
Albert Camus
The opposite of an idealist is too often a man without love.
Albert Camus
The most loathsome materialism is not the kind people usually think of, but the sort that attempts to let dead ideas pass for living realities, diverting into sterile myths the stubborn and lucid attention we give to what we have within us that must forever die.
Albert Camus
For there is merely bad luck in not being loved there is misfortune in not loving.
Albert Camus
I rebel therefore I exist.
Albert Camus
Death means nothing to men like me. It's the event that proves them right.
Albert Camus
The world is never quiet, even its silence eternally resounds with the same notes, in vibrations which escape our ears. As for those that we perceive, they carry sounds to us, occasionally a chord, never a melody.
Albert Camus
