More quotes by Albert Camus
The principle can be established that for a man who does not cheat what he believes to be true must determine his actions.
Albert Camus
Man wants to live, but it is useless to hope that this desire will dictate all his actions.
Albert Camus
I have always thought it would be easier to redeem a man steeped in vice and crime than a greedy, narrow-minded, pitiless merchant.
Albert Camus
Seeking what is true is not seeking what is desirable.
Albert Camus
Blessed are the hearts that can bend they shall never be broken.
Albert Camus
A fate is not a punishment.
Albert Camus
A man is more a man through the things he keeps to himself than through those he says.
Albert Camus
There is but one freedom, to put oneself right with death. After that everything is possible.
Albert Camus
Love cannot accept what it is. Everywhere on earth it cries out against kindness, compassion, intelligence, everything that leads to compromise. Love demands the impossible, the absolute, the sky on fire, inexhaustible springtime, life after death, and death itself transfigured into eternal life.
Albert Camus
That must be wonderful I have no idea of what it means.
Albert Camus
I enjoyed my own nature to the fullest, and we all know there lies happiness, although, to soothe one another mutually, we occasionally pretend to condemn such joys as selfishness.
Albert Camus
Do not wait for the Last Judgment. It takes place every day.
Albert Camus
But what are a hundred million deaths? When one has served in a war, one hardly knows what a dead man is, after a while. And since a dead man has no substance unless one has actually seen him dead, a hundred million corpses broadcast through history are no more than a puff of smoke in the imagination.
Albert Camus
Can one be a saint if God does not exist? That is the only concrete problem I know of today.
Albert Camus
As for those whose role it is to love us - I mean, relatives and in-laws (what a word)- It's a different tune. They find the right word, but it's usually the one that wounds.
Albert Camus
The opposite of an idealist is too often a man without love.
Albert Camus
Don't believe your friends when they ask you to be honest with them. All they really want is to be maintained in the good opinion they have of themselves.
Albert Camus
With rebellion, awareness is born
Albert Camus
I have a very old and very faithful attachment for dogs. I like them because they always forgive.
Albert Camus
It's not the struggle that makes us artists, but Art that makes us struggle.
Albert Camus
