More quotes by Albert Camus
...he said firmly, God can help you. All the men I’ve seen in your position turned to Him in their time of trouble. Obviously, I replied, they were at liberty to do so, if they felt like it. I, however, didn’t want to be helped, and I hadn’t time to work up interest for something that didn’t interest me.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Everybody knows life isn't worth living.
Albert Camus
Likewise, every time somebody interjects to speak of my honesty there is someone who quivers inside me.
Albert Camus
Sometimes, carrying on, just carrying on, is the superhuman achievement.
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.
