Albert Camus
Image
Every minute of life carries with it its miraculous value, and its face of eternal youth.
Albert Camus
Image

Albert Camus
Image
Beginning to think is beginning to be undermined.
Albert Camus

They hurt each other without wanting to, just because each represented to the others the cruel and demanding necessity of their lives.
Albert Camus
Image
An intellectual? Yes. And never deny it. An intellectual is someone whose mind watches itself. I like this, because I am happy to be both halves, the watcher and the watched. Can they be brought together? This is a practical question. We must get down to it. I despise intelligence really means: I cannot bear my doubts.

The workman of today works every day in his life at the same tasks, and this fate is no less absurd. But it is tragic only at the rare moments when it becomes conscious.
Albert Camus
Image
I am too far away from what I love and my distance is without remedy.
Albert Camus
Image
After awhile you could get used to anything.
Albert Camus
Image
As for those whose role it is to love us - I mean, relatives and in-laws (what a word)- It's a different tune. They find the right word, but it's usually the one that wounds.
Albert Camus
Image
A writer cannot put himself today in service of those who make history he is at the service of those who suffer it.
Albert Camus
Image
What the world expects of Christians is that Christians should speak out, loud and clear... in such a way that never a doubt, never the slightest doubt, could rise in the heart of the simplest man.
Albert Camus
Image
These are facts the heart can feel yet they call for careful study before they become clear to the intellect.
Albert Camus
Image
Methods of thought which claim to give the lead to our world in the name of revolution have become, in reality, ideologies of consent and not of rebellion.
Albert Camus
Image
Give up the tyranny of female charm.
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
