More quotes by Albert Camus
The future is the only kind of property that the masters willingly concede to the slaves.
Albert Camus
I have no friends, I only have accomplices now. On the other hand, my accomplices are more numerous than my friends: they are the human race.
Albert Camus
But above all, in order to be, never try to seem.
Albert Camus
Methods of thought which claim to give the lead to our world in the name of revolution have become, in reality, ideologies of consent and not of rebellion.
Albert Camus
One must imagine Sisyphus happy.
Albert Camus
Rebellion, in man, is the refusal to be treated as an object and to be reduced to simple historical terms. It is the affirmation of a nature common to all men, which eludes the world of power.
Albert Camus
I have always thought it would be easier to redeem a man steeped in vice and crime than a greedy, narrow-minded, pitiless merchant.
Albert Camus
There is a terrible emptiness in me, an indifference that hurts.
Albert Camus
For if there is a sin against life, it consists perhaps not so much in despairing of life as in hoping for another life and in eluding the implacable grandeur of this life.
Albert Camus
No cause justifies the deaths of innocent people.
Albert Camus
What is human in me is not what is best in me. What is human in me is that I desire, and to obtain what I desire, I believe I would crush anything that stood in my way.
Albert Camus
In a world that has ceased to believe in sin, the artist is responsible for the preaching.
Albert Camus
I continue to believe that this world has no ultimate meaning. But I know that something in it has a meaning and that is man, because he is the only creature to insist on having one
Albert Camus
We have art in order not to die of life.
Albert Camus
The spirit of rebellion can only exist in a society where a theoretical equality conceals great factual inequalities. The problem of rebellion, therefore, has no meaning except within our own Western society.
Albert Camus
You cannot create experience. You must undergo it.
Albert Camus
For the existentials, negation is their God. To be precise, that god is maintained only through the negation of human reason. But, like suicides, gods change with men.
Albert Camus
Life should be lived to the point of tears
Albert Camus
A régime [Nazism] which invented a biological foreign policy was obviously acting against its own best interests. But at least it obeyed its own particular logic.
Albert Camus
The world I live in is loathsome to me, but I feel one with the men who suffer in it
Albert Camus
