Albert Camus

Albert Camus
In the depths of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.
Albert Camus
We are condemned to live together.
Albert Camus
No, Father, I've a very different idea of love. And until my dying day I shall refuse to love a scheme of things in which children are put to torture.
Albert Camus
The best revenge you can have on intellectuals is to be madly happy.
