Naturally, it is a superhuman task. But tasks are called superhuman when men take a long time to complete them, that is all.
Albert Camus
Image
Your successes and happiness are forgiven you only if you generously consent to share them.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Image
There are means that cannot be excused. And I should like to be able to love my country and still love justice. I don't want just any greatness for it, particularly a greatness born of blood and falsehood. I want to keep it alive by keeping justice alive.
Albert Camus
Image
Only the sea, murmurous behind the dingy checkerboard of houses, told of the unrest, the precariousness, of all things in this world.
Albert Camus
Image
To stay or to go, it amounted to the same thing.
Albert Camus
