In that night alive with signs and stars, I opened myself to the gentle indifference of the world. Finding it so much like myself--like a brother, really--I felt that I had been happy and that I was happy again.
Albert Camus
Image
Why must one love rarely to love well?
Albert Camus
Image
A guilty conscience needs to confess. A work of art is a confession.
Albert Camus

Artistic creation is a demand for unity and a rejection of the world.
Albert Camus

Once crime was as solitary as a cry of protest now it is as universal as science. Yesterday it was put on trial today it determines the law.
Albert Camus
Image
...there was only one thing that interested her and that was getting into bed with men whenever she'd the chance. And I warned her straight. 'You'll be sorry one day, my girl, and wish you'd got me back'.
Albert Camus
