More quotes by Albert Camus
Blessed are the hearts that can bend they shall never be broken.
Albert Camus
Empires and churches are born under the sun of death.
Albert Camus
The great courage is to stare as squarely at the light as at death.
Albert Camus
what doesn't kill you make you stronger and stronger
Albert Camus
It is impossible to give a clear account of the world, but art can teach us to reproduce it-just as the world reproduces itself in the course of its eternal gyrations. The primordial sea indefatigably repeats the same words and casts up the same astonished beings on the same sea-shore.
Albert Camus
Nature is a burning and frigid, transparent and limited universe in which nothing is possible but everything is given.
Albert Camus
By giving too much importance to fine actions one may end by paying an indirect but powerful tribute to evil, because in so doing one implies that such fine actions are only valuable because they are rare, and that malice or indifference are far more common motives in the actions of men.
Albert Camus
Men are convinced of your arguments, your sincerity, and the seriousness of your efforts only by your death.
Albert Camus
There are always reasons for murdering a man. But there is no justification for his existence.
Albert Camus
You must have a love, a great love, to ensure an alibi at unjustified despairs that conquer all of us
Albert Camus
I am too much in love with my lies and hypocrisies not to confess them fervently.
Albert Camus
There is always a certain hour of the day and of the night when a man’s courage is at its lowest ebb, and it was that hour only that he feared.
Albert Camus
This very heart which is mine will forever remain indefinable to me. Between the certainty I have of my existence and the content I try to give to that assurance, the gap will never be filled. Forever I shall be a stranger to myself.
Albert Camus
My profession lent itself nicely to my vocation for heights. It freed me of any bitterness towards my fellow men, who were alwaysin my debt, without my owing them anything. It placed me above the judge whom, I in turn judged, above the defendant whom I forced into gratitude.
Albert Camus
Madness such as this, its like trying to stop a fire with the moisture from a kiss
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
At one time or another all normal people have wished their loved ones were dead.
Albert Camus
There is no fate that cannot be surmounted by scorn.
Albert Camus
There are people who prefer to look their fate in the eye
Albert Camus
The sense of doing good , the satisfaction of being right, the joy of looking favorably upon oneself, dear sir, are powerful levers for keeping us upright and making us progress. On the other hand, if men are deprived of that feeling, they are changed into rabid dogs.
Albert Camus
