More quotes by Albert Camus
My great idea is that we must forgive the Pope. First of all, he needs it more than anyone else. Besides, it is the only way of placing oneself above him.
Albert Camus
There was a time when I didn’t at any minute have the slightest idea how I could reach the next one. Yes, one can wage war in this world, ape love, torture one’s fellow man, or merely say evil of one’s neighbour while knitting. But, in certain cases, carrying on, merely continuing, is superhuman.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
I had been right I was still right I was always right. I had lived my life one way and I could just as well lived it another. I had done this and I hadn t done that. I hadn t done this thing and I had done another. And so?
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
We always deceive ourselves twice about the people we love - first to their advantage, then to their disadvantage.
Albert Camus
There is no shame in preferring happiness.
Albert Camus
For ever, I shall be a stranger to myself.
Albert Camus
With rebellion, awareness is born
Albert Camus
The day when I am no more than a writer I shall cease to be a writer.
Albert Camus
Morality, when formal, devours.
Albert Camus
Perhaps we cannot prevent this world from being a world in which children are tortured. But we can reduce the number of tortured children.
Albert Camus
At a certain level of suffering or injustice no one can do anything for anyone. Pain is solitary.
Albert Camus
Man cannot do without beauty, and this is what our era pretends to want to disregard.
Albert Camus
I lived with the only continuity, day to day, of the me-me-me.
Albert Camus
