More quotes by Albert Camus
The only real progress lies in learning to be wrong all alone.
Albert Camus
He seemed so certain about everything, didn't he? And yet none of his certainties was worth one hair of a woman's head. He wasn't even sure he was alive, because he was living like a dead man.
Albert Camus
The aim of art, the aim of a life can only be to increase the sum of freedom and responsibility to be found in every man and in the world. It cannot, under any circumstances, be to reduce or suppress that freedom, even temporarily.
Albert Camus
The more I accuse myself, the more right I have to judge you. Even better, I make you judge yourself, which comforts me the more.
Albert Camus
Without work all life goes rotten.
Albert Camus
A nihilist is not one who believes in nothing , but one who does not believe in what exists.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
What must be remembered in any case is that secret complicity that joins the logical and the everyday to the tragic.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
The first choice an artist makes is precisely to be an artist, and if he chooses to be an artist it is in consideration of what he is himself and because of a certain idea he has of art
Albert Camus
I'd buy myself a cabin on the beach, I'd put some glue in my navel, and I'd stick a flag in there. Then I'd wait to see which way the wind was blowing.
Albert Camus
... one cannot be happy in exile or in oblivion. One cannot always be a stranger. I want to return to my homeland, make all my loved ones happy. I see no further than this.
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
How do you put everyone in the pool, so you have the right to dry yourself in the sun?
Albert Camus
Where there is no hope, we must invent it.
Albert Camus
There are causes worth dying for, but none worth killing for.
Albert Camus
But above all, in order to be, never try to seem.
Albert Camus
If the descent is thus sometimes performed in sorrow, it can also take place in joy.
Albert Camus
