Give up the tyranny of female charm.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Image
Everything considered, a determined soul will always manage.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Image
The society based on production is only productive, not creative.
Albert Camus
Image
To assert in any case that a man must be absolutely cut off from society because he is absolutely evil amounts to saying that society is absolutely good, and no-one in his right mind will believe this today.
Albert Camus
Image
I may not have been sure about what really did interest me, but I was absolutely sure about what didn't.
Albert Camus
Image
I am too far away from what I love and my distance is without remedy.
Albert Camus
Image
At a certain level of suffering or injustice no one can do anything for anyone. Pain is solitary.
Albert Camus
Image
Find your happiness in yourself.
Albert Camus
