More quotes by Albert Camus
I don't want to represent man as he is, but only as he might be.
Albert Camus
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
Life is meaningless, but worth living, provided you recognize it's meaningless.
Albert Camus
[Love] is the type of disease that spares neither the intelligent nor the idiotic.
Albert Camus
Revolt and revolution both wind up at the same crossroads: the police, or folly.
Albert Camus
I continue to believe that this world has no ultimate meaning. But I know that something in it has a meaning and that is man, because he is the only creature to insist on having one
Albert Camus
To be famous, in fact, one has only to kill one's landlady.
Albert Camus
There is but one truly serious philosophical problem and that is suicide.
Albert Camus
We are rebels for a cause, poets with a dream , and we won't let this world die without a fight.
Albert Camus
La ve rite , comme la lumie' re, aveugle. Le mensonge, au contraire, est un beau cre puscule qui met chaque objet en valeur. Truth, like light, blinds. A lie, on the contrary, is a beautiful twilight which shows the value of each object.
Albert Camus
To lose one's life is no great matter when the time comes I'll have the courage to lose mine. But what's intolerable is to see one's life being drained of meaning, to be told there's no reason for existing. A man can't live without some reason for living.
Albert Camus
Since we're all going to die, it's obvious that when and how don't matter.
Albert Camus
No one who lives in the sunlight of gratitude that things aren't worse makes a failure of his or her life.
Albert Camus
When love ceases to be tragic it is something else and the individual again throws himself in search of tragedy.
Albert Camus
From the moment absurdity is recognized, it becomes a passion, the most harrowing of all. But whether or not one can live with one's passions, whether or not one can accept their law, which is to burn the heart they simultaneously exalt - that is the whole question.
Albert Camus
Absolute justice is achieved by the suppression of all contradiction, therefore it destroys freedom.
Albert Camus
The real passion of the twentieth century is servitude.
Albert Camus
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
Poor and free rather than rich and enslaved. Of course, men want to be both rich and free, and this is what leads them at times to be poor and enslaved.
Albert Camus
There is no fate that cannot be surmounted by scorn.
Albert Camus
