More quotes by Albert Camus
Perhaps we cannot prevent this world from being a world in which children are tortured. But we can reduce the number of tortured children.
Albert Camus
We spend our days in deliberating, and we end them without coming to any resolve.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus

Albert Camus
The day when I am no more than a writer I shall cease to be a writer.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Beware of those who say: I know this too well to be able to express it. For if they cannot do so, this is because they don't know it or because out of laziness they stopped at the outer crust.
Albert Camus
The world in which we were called to exist was an absurd world, and there was no other in which we could take refuge.
Albert Camus
In order to understand the world, one has to turn away from it on occasion.
Albert Camus
If there is a soul, it is a mistake to believe that it is given to us fully created. It is created here, throughout a whole life. And living is nothing else but that long and painful bringing forth.
Albert Camus
Truth and freedom, having few lovers, are demanding mistresses.
Albert Camus
It is natural to give a clear view of the world after accepting the idea that it must be clear.
Albert Camus
The only real progress lies in learning to be wrong all alone.
Albert Camus
Men who have greatness within them don't go in for politics.
Albert Camus
