More quotes by Albert Camus
All modern revolutions have ended in a reinforcement of the power of the State.
Albert Camus
Creating is living doubly. The groping, anxious quest of a Proust, his meticulous collecting of flowers, of wallpapers, and of anxieties, signifies nothing else.
Albert Camus
What’s true of all the evils in the world is true of plague as well. It helps men to rise above themselves.
Albert Camus
I feel like getting married, or committing suicide, or subscribing to L'Illustration. Something desperate, you know.
Albert Camus
Those who lack the courage will always find a philosophy to justify it.
Albert Camus
It is the job of thinking people not to be on the side of the executioners.
Albert Camus
Youth is above all a collection of possibilities.
Albert Camus
What is a rebel? A man who says no.
Albert Camus
A liking for truth at any cost is a passion that spares nothing and that nothing resists. It's a vice, at times a comfort, or a selfishness.
Albert Camus
What on earth prompted you to take a hand in this? I don't know. My… my code of morals, perhaps. Your code of morals. What code, if I may ask? Comprehension.
Albert Camus
Although it was the middle of winter, I finally realized that, within me, summer was inextinguishable.
Albert Camus
How hard it is, how bitter it is to become a man!
Albert Camus
The truth is that nothing is less sensational than pestilence, and by reason of their very duration great misfortunes are monotonous.
Albert Camus
Rule: Start by looking for what is valid in every man.
Albert Camus
History only exists, in the final analysis, for God.
Albert Camus
Human relationships always help us to carry on because they always presuppose further developments, a future - and also because we live as if our only task was precisely to have relationships with other people.
Albert Camus
Without culture, and the relative freedom it implies, society, even when perfect, is but a jungle. This is why any authentic creation is a gift to the future.
Albert Camus
For a man who loves power, competition from the gods is annoying. I have done away with that. I have proven to these illusory godsthat a man, if he has the will, can practice, without any apprenticeship, their ridiculous trade.
Albert Camus
There's the risk of being loved...and that would keep me from being happy.
Albert Camus
In our wildest aberrations we dream of an equilibrium we have left behind and which we naively expect to find at the end of our errors. Childish presumption which justifies the fact that child-nations, inheriting our follies, are now directing our history.
Albert Camus
