More quotes by Albert Camus
Every great work makes the human face more admirable and richer, and this is its whole secret.
Albert Camus
A lot of jobs don't allow you to be who you are. There is dignity in work only when it is work freely accepted.
Albert Camus
You make the mistake of thinking you have to choose, that you have to do what you want, that there are conditions for happiness. What matters — all that matters, really is the will to happiness, a kind of enormous, ever present consciousness. The rest - women , art, success — is nothing but excuses. A canvas waiting for our embroideries.
Albert Camus
Madness such as this, its like trying to stop a fire with the moisture from a kiss
Albert Camus
Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
Albert Camus
Generally, I like all islands. There, it is easier to rule.
Albert Camus
Art and revolt will die only with the last man.
Albert Camus
...the habit of despair is worse than despair itself.
Albert Camus
The only really committed artist is he who, without refusing to take part in the combat, at least refuses to join the regular armies and remains a freelance.
Albert Camus
If man is reduced to being nothing but a character in history, he has no other choice but to subside into the sound and fury of acompletely irrational history or to endow history with the form of human reason.
Albert Camus
We are rebels for a cause, poets with a dream , and we won't let this world die without a fight.
Albert Camus
... I suppose that it is not so easy to go home and it takes a bit of time to make a son out of a stranger.
Albert Camus
If you keep on excusing, you eventually give your blessing to the slave camp, to cowardly force, to organized executioners, to the cynicism of great political monsters you finally hand over your brothers.
Albert Camus
We turn toward God only to obtain the impossible.
Albert Camus
In order to exist, man must rebel.
Albert Camus
You always get exaggerated notions of things you don't know anything about.
Albert Camus
I know that man is capable of great deeds. But if he isn't capable of great emotion, well, he leaves me cold.
Albert Camus
It is impossible to give a clear account of the world, but art can teach us to reproduce it-just as the world reproduces itself in the course of its eternal gyrations. The primordial sea indefatigably repeats the same words and casts up the same astonished beings on the same sea-shore.
Albert Camus
Only the sea, murmurous behind the dingy checkerboard of houses, told of the unrest, the precariousness, of all things in this world.
Albert Camus
A free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad.
Albert Camus
