More quotes by Albert Camus
We are not so mad as to think that we shall create a world in which murder will not occur. We are fighting for a world in which murder will no longer be legal.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
That's love, giving everything, sacrificing all without hope of return.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus

Albert Camus
But - I cannot make a choice. I have my own sorrow, but I suffer with him, too I share his pain. I understand all - that is my trouble.
Albert Camus
The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.
Albert Camus
Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
Albert Camus
Empires and churches are born under the sun of death.
Albert Camus
I know simply that the sky will last longer than I.
Albert Camus
That must be wonderful I have no idea of what it means.
Albert Camus
I always found misogyny vulgar and stupid, and I found almost all the women I have known to be my betters. However, placing them so high, I used them more often than I served them. How does one make sense of this?
Albert Camus
Without work all life goes rotten.
Albert Camus
