More quotes by Albert Camus
The opposite of an idealist is too often a man without love.
Albert Camus
Obstinacy alone is not a virtue.
Albert Camus
Lucifer also has died with God, and from his ashes has arisen a spiteful demon who does not even understand the object of his venture.
Albert Camus
We must stitch up what has been torn apart, render justice imaginable in the world which is so obviously unjust, make happiness meaningful for nations poisoned by the misery of this century. Naturally, it is a superhuman task. But tasks are called superhuman when men take a long time to complete them, that is all.
Albert Camus
In order to speak about all and to all, one has to speak of what all know and of the reality common to us all. The sea, rains, necessity, desire, the struggle against death... these are things that unite us all.
Albert Camus
I understood, by dint of digging into my memories, that modesty helped me to shine, humility helped me to triumph and virtue to oppress.
Albert Camus
When the body is sad, the heart languishes.
Albert Camus
The absurd is sin without God.
Albert Camus
Our reason has driven all away. Alone at last, we end up ruling over a desert.
Albert Camus
In short, they were gambling on their luck, and luck is not to be coerced.
Albert Camus
To lose the touch of flowers and women's hands is the supreme separation.
Albert Camus
There is but one truly serious philosophical problem and that is suicide.
Albert Camus
The absurd has meaning only in so far as it is not agreed to.
Albert Camus
But in the end one needs more courage to live than to kill himself.
Albert Camus
Man cannot do without beauty, and this is what our era pretends to want to disregard.
Albert Camus
I felt the urge to reassure him that I was like everybody else, just like everybody else.
Albert Camus
The artist forges himself to the others, midway between the beauty he cannot do without and the community he cannot tear himself away from. That is why true artists scorn nothing: they are obliged to understand rather than to judge.
Albert Camus
Greatness consists in trying to be great. There is no other way.
Albert Camus
Revolt and revolution both wind up at the same crossroads: the police, or folly.
Albert Camus
On the ridge where the great artist moves forward, every step is an adventure, an extreme risk. In that risk, however, and only there, lays the freedom of Art.
Albert Camus
