Albert Camus

Albert Camus

But all the long speeches, all the interminable days and hours that people had spent talking about my soul, had left me with the impression of a colorless swirling river that was making me dizzy.
Albert Camus
Image
The world is never quiet, even its silence eternally resounds with the same notes, in vibrations which escape our ears. As for those that we perceive, they carry sounds to us, occasionally a chord, never a melody.
Albert Camus
Image
There is no love of life without despair of life.
Albert Camus
Image
There are causes worth dying for, but none worth killing for.
Albert Camus
Image
This is the century of fear.
Albert Camus
Image
Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.
Albert Camus
