More quotes by Albert Camus
Truth is not a virtue, but a passion. It is never charitable.
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
All that I know most surely about morality and obligations I owe to football.
Albert Camus
Life should be lived to the point of tears
Albert Camus
He knew now that it was his own will to happiness which must make the next move. But if he was to do so, he realized that he must come to terms with time, that to have time was at once the most magnificent and the most dangerous of experiments. Idleness is fatal only to the mediocre.
Albert Camus
It is terrifying to see how easily, in certain people, all dignity collapses. Yet when you think about it, this is quite normal since they only maintain this dignity by constantly striving against their own nature.
Albert Camus
Freedom of the press is perhaps the freedom that has suffered the most from the gradual degradation of the idea of liberty.
Albert Camus
The laws of nature may be operative up to a certain limit, beyond which they turn against themselves to give birth to the absurd.
Albert Camus
It takes time to live. Like any work of art, life needs to be thought about.
Albert Camus
If nothing had any meaning, you would be right. But there is something that still has a meaning.
Albert Camus
The principle can be established that for a man who does not cheat what he believes to be true must determine his actions.
Albert Camus
A free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad.
Albert Camus
A true masterpiece does not tell everything.
Albert Camus
Yes, and when the love of life disappears, no meaning can console us.
Albert Camus
After a short silence the doctor raised himself a little in his chair and asked if Tarrou had an idea of the path to follow for attaining peace. Yes, he replied. The path of sympathy.
Albert Camus
And for all his life it would be kindness and love that made him cry, never pain or persecution, which on the contrary only reinforced his spirit and his resolution.
Albert Camus
In truth, I was so good at being a man, with such plenitude and simplicity, that I thought I was something of a superman.
Albert Camus
Here lives a free man. Nobody serves him.
Albert Camus
There are places where the mind dies so that a truth which is its very denial may be born.
Albert Camus
Every man needs slaves like he needs clean air. To rule is to breathe, is it not? And even the most disenfranchised get to breathe. The lowest on the social scale have their spouses or their children.
Albert Camus
