More quotes by Albert Camus
Always there comes an hour when one is weary of one's work and devotion to duty, and all one craves for is a loved face, the warmth and wonder of a loving heart.
Albert Camus
Every time I hear a political speech or I read those of our leaders, I am horrified at having, for years, heard nothing which sounded human. It is always the same words telling the same lies.
Albert Camus
Man is the only creature that refuses to be what he is.
Albert Camus
At a certain level of suffering or injustice no one can do anything for anyone. Pain is solitary.
Albert Camus
No ends, simply means.
Albert Camus
Great feelings take with them their own universe, splendid or abject. They light up with their passion an exclusive world in which they recognize their climate.
Albert Camus
For me, physical love has always been bound to an irresistible feeling of innocence and joy. Thus, I cannot love in tears but in exaltation.
Albert Camus
The Byronic hero, incapable of love, or capable only of an impossible love, suffers endlessly. He is solitary, languid, his condition exhausts him. If he wants to feel alive, it must be in the terrible exaltation of a brief and destructive action.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Cruel irony, the poor man tormented with hunger feeds those who plead his case.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
After a short silence the doctor raised himself a little in his chair and asked if Tarrou had an idea of the path to follow for attaining peace. Yes, he replied. The path of sympathy.
Albert Camus
When I see a new face, something sets off an alarm bell inside me. 'slow down! Danger!' Even when the attraction is strongest, I am on my guard.
Albert Camus
There are people who prefer to look their fate in the eye
Albert Camus
What is a firm hand to me, of what use to me is this astonishing power if I cannot change the order of things, if I cannot make the sun set in the east, that suffering diminish and that beings no longer die?
Albert Camus
The greatness of man lies in his decision to be stronger than his condition.
Albert Camus
Once crime was as solitary as a cry of protest now it is as universal as science. Yesterday it was put on trial today it determines the law.
Albert Camus
I am not made for politics because I am incapable of wanting or accepting the death of the adversary.
Albert Camus
Travel, which is like a greater and a graver science, brings us back to ourselves.
Albert Camus
If the only significant history of human thought were to be written, it would have to be the history of its successive regrets and its impotences.
Albert Camus
