More quotes by Albert Camus
I conceived at least one great love in my life, of which I was always the object.
Albert Camus
She was wearing a pair of my pajamas with the sleeves rolled up. When she laughed I wanted her again. A minute later she asked me if I loved her. I told her it didn't mean anything but that I didn't think so. She looked sad. But as we were fixing lunch, and for no apparent reason, she laughed in such a way that I kissed her.
Albert Camus
...Any authentic creation is a gift to the future.
Albert Camus
To be famous, in fact, one has only to kill one's landlady.
Albert Camus
I am too far away from what I love and my distance is without remedy.
Albert Camus
It's a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money.
Albert Camus
The main thing is that everything become simple, easy enough for a child to understand.
Albert Camus
Where would his torture be, indeed, if at every step the hope of succeeding upheld him?
Albert Camus
Thus each of us had to be content to live only for the day, alone under the vast indifference of the sky.
Albert Camus
I lived with the only continuity, day to day, of the me-me-me.
Albert Camus
We call first truths those we discover after all the others.
Albert Camus
Beginning to think is beginning to be undermined. Society has but little connection with such beginnings. The worm is in man's heart. That is where it must be sought. One must follow and understand this fatal game that leads from lucidity in the face of existence to flight from light.
Albert Camus
My chief occupation, despite appearances, has always been love.
Albert Camus
The end of their passion consists of loving uselessly at the moment when it is pointless.
Albert Camus
In our well-policed society we recognize that an illness is serious from the fact that we don't dare speak of it directly.
Albert Camus
There is but one truly serious philosophical problem and that is suicide.
Albert Camus
Does the end justify the means? That is possible. But what will justify the end? To that question, which historical thought leaves pending, rebellion replies: the means.
Albert Camus
To me, art is not a solitary delight. It is a means of stirring the greatest number of men by providing them with a privileged image of our common joys and woes.
Albert Camus
... one cannot be happy in exile or in oblivion. One cannot always be a stranger. I want to return to my homeland, make all my loved ones happy. I see no further than this.
Albert Camus
I have the loftiest idea, and the most passionate one, of art. Much too lofty to agree to subject it to anything. Much too passionate to want to divorce it from anything.
Albert Camus
