More quotes by Albert Camus
How many crimes are permitted simply because their authors could not endure being wrong.
Albert Camus
There is but one truly serious philosophical problem and that is suicide. Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy. All the rest — whether or not the world has three dimensions, whether the mind has nine or twelve categories — comes afterwards. These are games one must first answer.
Albert Camus
Note, besides, that it is no more immoral to directly rob citizens than to slip indirect taxes into the price of goods that they cannot do without.
Albert Camus
Thus, in a middle course between these heights and depths, they drifted through life rather than lived, the prey of aimless days and sterile memories, like wandering shadows that could have acquired substance only by consenting to root themselves in the solid earth of their distress.
Albert Camus
If, after all, men cannot always make history have a meaning, they can always act so that their own lives have one.
Albert Camus
I would like to be able to breathe— to be able to love her by memory or fidelity. But my heart aches. I love you continuously, intensely.
Albert Camus
It is the job of thinking people not to be on the side of the executioners.
Albert Camus
No ends, simply means.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
The opposite of an idealist is too often a man without love.
Albert Camus
Seeking what is true is not seeking what is desirable.
Albert Camus
It is easier to kill what we do not know.
Albert Camus
And real nobility (that of the heart) is based on scorn, courage, and profound indifference.
Albert Camus
These are facts the heart can feel yet they call for careful study before they become clear to the intellect.
Albert Camus
Violence is both unavoidable and unjustifiable.
Albert Camus
Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
Albert Camus
Culture: the cry of men in face of their destiny.

To feel absolutely right is the beginning of the end.
Albert Camus
