Albert Camus

Albert Camus

Albert Camus
We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die.
Albert Camus
A single sentence will suffice for modern man. He fornicated and read the papers. After that vigorous definition, the subject will be, if I may say so, exhausted.
Albert Camus
The absurd depends as much on man as on the world. For the moment, it is all that links them together.

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