More quotes by Albert Camus
There are places where the mind dies so that a truth which is its very denial may be born.
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
For ever, I shall be a stranger to myself.
Albert Camus
In short, they were gambling on their luck, and luck is not to be coerced.
Albert Camus
Absolute freedom mocks at justice. Absolute justice denies freedom.
Albert Camus
There is no frontier between being and appearing.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Where there is no hope, we must invent it.
Albert Camus
You have to be very rich or very poor to live without a trade.
Albert Camus
The only real progress lies in learning to be wrong all alone.
Albert Camus
What will be left of the power of example if it is proved that capital punishment has another power, and a very real one, which degrades men to the point of shame, madness, and murder?
Albert Camus
You know very well that I no longer think. I am far too intelligent for that.
Albert Camus
We turn our backs on nature we are ashamed of beauty. Our wretched tragedies have a smell of the office clinging to them, and the blood that trickles from them is the color of printer's ink.
Albert Camus
