There is so much stubborn hope in the human heart.
Albert Camus
Image
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
Image
None of the evils which totalitarianism ... claims to remedy is worse than totalitarianism itself.
Albert Camus
Image
I see many people die because they judge that life is not worth living. I see others paradoxically getting killed for the ideas or illusions that give them a reason for living (what is called a reason for living is also an excellent reason for dying). I therefore conclude that the meaning of life is the most urgent of questions.
Albert Camus
Image
At that time, I often thought that if I had had to live in the trunk of a dead tree, with nothing to do but look up at the sky flowing overhead, little by little I would have gotten used to it.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Image

Albert Camus
Image
There is no frontier between being and appearing.
Albert Camus
Image
To insure the adoration of a theorem for any length of time, faith is not enough, a police force is needed as well.
Albert Camus
Image
We always deceive ourselves twice about the people we love - first to their advantage, then to their disadvantage.
Albert Camus
Image
I am not made for politics because I am incapable of wanting or accepting the death of the adversary.
Albert Camus
Image
[Love] is the type of disease that spares neither the intelligent nor the idiotic.
Albert Camus
Image
If, after all, men cannot always make history have a meaning, they can always act so that their own lives have one.
Albert Camus
Image
When one has no character, one HAS to apply a method. Here it did wonders incontrovertibly, and I am living on the site of one of the greatest crimes in human history.
Albert Camus
Image
Absurd- that is the light mind that establishes its own borders.
Albert Camus
