More quotes by Albert Camus
That must be wonderful I have no idea of what it means.
Albert Camus
Thinking is learning all over again how to see, directing one's consciousness, making of every image a privileged place.

The human heart has a tiresome tendency to label as fate only what crushes it. But happiness likewise, in its way, is without reason, since it is inevitable.
Albert Camus
Absolute justice is achieved by the suppression of all contradiction, therefore it destroys freedom.
Albert Camus
I opened myself to the gentle indifference of the world.
Albert Camus

She was wearing a pair of my pajamas with the sleeves rolled up. When she laughed I wanted her again. A minute later she asked me if I loved her. I told her it didn't mean anything but that I didn't think so. She looked sad. But as we were fixing lunch, and for no apparent reason, she laughed in such a way that I kissed her.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
I rebel therefore I exist.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Politics and the fate of mankind are formed by men without ideals and without greatness. Those who have greatness within them do not go in for politics.
Albert Camus
Greatness consists in trying to be great. There is no other way.
Albert Camus
Absurd- that is the light mind that establishes its own borders.
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
