More quotes by Albert Camus
And never have I felt so deeply at one and the same time so detached from myself and so present in the world.
Albert Camus
A man devoid of hope and conscious of being so has ceased to belong to the future.
Albert Camus
There is always a certain hour of the day and of the night when a man’s courage is at its lowest ebb, and it was that hour only that he feared.
Albert Camus
For a man who loves power, competition from the gods is annoying. I have done away with that. I have proven to these illusory godsthat a man, if he has the will, can practice, without any apprenticeship, their ridiculous trade.
Albert Camus
Love is the kind of illness that does not spare the intelligent or the dull.
Albert Camus
Maman used to say that you can always find something to be happy about.
Albert Camus
Having money is a way of being free of money.
Albert Camus
Against eternal injustice, man must assert justice, and to protest against the universe of grief, he must create happiness.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
...the habit of despair is worse than despair itself.
Albert Camus
Without freedom there is no art.
Albert Camus
The love of God is a hard love. It demands total self-surrender, disdain of our human personality. And yet it alone can reconcile us to suffering and the deaths of children, it alone can justify them, since we cannot understand them, and we can only make God's will ours.
Albert Camus
No matter what cause one defends, it will suffer permanent disgrace if one resorts to blind attacks on crowds of innocent people.
Albert Camus
The absurd is a shadow cast over everything we do and even if we try to live life as if it has meaning as if there are reasons for doing things the absurd will linger in the back of our minds as a nagging doubt that perhaps there is no point.
Albert Camus
Happiness and the absurd are two sons of the same earth. They are inseparable.
Albert Camus
We get into the habit of living before acquiring the habit of thinking. In that race which daily hastens us towards death, the body maintains its irreparable lead.
Albert Camus
No human being, even the most passionately loved and passionately loving, is ever in our possession.
Albert Camus
It is natural to give a clear view of the world after accepting the idea that it must be clear.
Albert Camus
No one who lives in the sunlight of gratitude that things aren't worse makes a failure of his or her life.
Albert Camus
In order to be created, a work of art must first make use of the dark forces of the soul
Albert Camus
