Image
I love life - that’s my real weakness. I love it so much that I am incapable of imagining what is not life.
Albert Camus
Image
I grew up with the sea, and poverty for me was sumptuous then I lost the sea and found all luxuries gray and poverty unbearable.
Albert Camus

what doesn't kill you make you stronger and stronger
Albert Camus
Image
The gods had condemned Sisyphus to ceaselessly rolling a rock to the top of a mountain, whence the stone would fall back of its own weight. They had thought with some reason that there is no more dreadful punishment than futile and hopeless labor.
Albert Camus
Image
The only conception of freedom I can have is that of the prisoner or the individual in the midst of the State. The only one I know is freedom of thought and action.
Albert Camus
Image
In the vast reaches of the dry, cold night, thousands of stars were constantly appearing, and their sparkling icicles, loosened at once, began to slip gradually toward the horizon.
Albert Camus
Image
For there is merely bad luck in not being loved there is misfortune in not loving.
Albert Camus
Image
Do not wait for the Last Judgment. It takes place every day.
Albert Camus
Image
The aim of art, the aim of a life can only be to increase the sum of freedom and responsibility to be found in every man and in the world. It cannot, under any circumstances, be to reduce or suppress that freedom, even temporarily.
Albert Camus
Image
It is a well-known fact that we always recognize our homeland at the moment we are about to lose it.
Albert Camus
Image
Man is always prey to his truths. Once he has admitted them, he cannot free himself from them.
Albert Camus
Image
...he said firmly, God can help you. All the men I’ve seen in your position turned to Him in their time of trouble. Obviously, I replied, they were at liberty to do so, if they felt like it. I, however, didn’t want to be helped, and I hadn’t time to work up interest for something that didn’t interest me.
Albert Camus
Image
Beginning to think is beginning to be undermined.
Albert Camus
Image
The rebel can never find peace. He knows what is good and, despite himself, does evil. The value which supports him is never given to him once and for all - he must fight to uphold it, unceasingly.
Albert Camus
Image
The more I produce, the less I am certain. On the road along which the artist walks, night falls ever more densely. Finally, he dies blind.
Albert Camus
Image
At 30 a man should know himself like the palm of his hand, know the exact number of his defects and qualities, know how far he can go, foretell his failures - be what he is. And, above all, accept these things.
Albert Camus
Image
Some are created to love, while the others - to live.
Albert Camus
Image
Truth is mysterious, elusive, always to be conquered. Liberty is dangerous, as hard to live with as it is elating. We must march toward these two goals, painfully but resolutely, certain in advance of our failings on so long a road.
Albert Camus
Image
There is no sun without shadow, and it is essential to know the night.
Albert Camus

The temptation shared by all forms of intelligence: cynicism.
