Great novelists are philosopher novelists - that is, the contrary of thesis-writers.
Albert Camus

On good days, if you trust life, life has to answer you.
Albert Camus
Image
For what gives value to travel is fear. It breaks down a kind of inner structure we have. Travel robs us of such refuge. Far from our own people, our own language, stripped of all our props, deprived of our masks (one doesn't know the fare on the streetcars, or anything else), we are completely on the surface of ourselves.
Albert Camus
Image
Those who lack the courage will always find a philosophy to justify it.
Albert Camus
Image
Children will still die unjustly even in a perfect society. Even by his greatest effort, man can only propose to diminish, arithmetically, the sufferings of the world.
Albert Camus
Image

Albert Camus

The modern mind is in complete disarray. Knowledge has stretched itself to the point where neither the world nor our intelligence can find any foot-hold. It is a fact that we are suffering from nihilism.
Albert Camus
Image
No code of ethics and no effort are justifiable a priori in the face of the cruel mathematics that command our condition.
Albert Camus
Image
In every rebellion is to be found the metaphysical demand for unity, the impossibility of capturing it, and the construction of a substitute universe.
Albert Camus
Image
At the age of 40, having ordered meat very rare in restaurants all his life, he realized he actually liked it medium and not at all rare.
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
In art, rebellion is consummated and perpetuated in the act of real creation, not in criticism or commentary.
Albert Camus
Image
Today we are always as ready to judge as we are to fornicate.
Albert Camus
Image
Don't believe your friends when they ask you to be honest with them. All they really want is to be maintained in the good opinion they have of themselves.
Albert Camus
Image
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
