There is a life and there is a death, and there are beauty and melancholy between.
Albert Camus
Image
God is not necessary to create culpability, or to punish. Our fellow men are enough for that, helped by ourselves.
Albert Camus
Image
Love is the kind of illness that does not spare the intelligent or the dull.
Albert Camus
Image
Without work, all life goes rotten. But when work is soulless, life stifles and dies.
Albert Camus
Image
Like great works, deep feelings always mean more than they are conscious of saying.
Albert Camus
Image
Our reason has driven all away. Alone at last, we end up ruling over a desert.
Albert Camus
Image
Only it takes time to be happy. A lot of time. Happiness, too, is a long patience.
Albert Camus
Image
We call first truths those we discover after all the others.
Albert Camus
