More quotes by Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Sometimes at night I would sleep open-eyed underneath a sky dripping with stars. I was alive then.
Albert Camus
but perhaps we should love what we cannot understand
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
If, after all, men cannot always make history have a meaning, they can always act so that their own lives have one.
Albert Camus
... unhappiness is like marriage. We believe we chose it, but then it is choosing us. That is how it is, we can do nothing about it.
Albert Camus
Empires and churches are born under the sun of death.
Albert Camus
Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Every minute of life carries with it its miraculous value, and its face of eternal youth.
Albert Camus
I am too much in love with my lies and hypocrisies not to confess them fervently.
Albert Camus
Methods of thought which claim to give the lead to our world in the name of revolution have become, in reality, ideologies of consent and not of rebellion.
Albert Camus
At one time or another all normal people have wished their loved ones were dead.
Albert Camus
Nothing in life is worth, turning your back on, if you love it.
Albert Camus
Sometimes, carrying on, just carrying on, is the superhuman achievement.
Albert Camus
Nihilism is not only despair and negation, but above all the desire to despair and to negate.
Albert Camus
A work of art is a confession.
Albert Camus
When I see a new face, something sets off an alarm bell inside me. 'slow down! Danger!' Even when the attraction is strongest, I am on my guard.
Albert Camus
In order to exist, man must rebel, but rebellion must respect the limits that it discovers in itself - limits where minds meet, and in meeting, begin to exist.
Albert Camus
You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.
Albert Camus
