Have you noticed that only death arouses our emotions? How we love thee friends who have just passed away, right? How we admire those master who no longer speak, their mouths full of dirt. We them we are not obligated.

More quotes by Albert Camus
A loveless world is a dead world.
Albert Camus
On the ridge where the great artist moves forward, every step is an adventure, an extreme risk. In that risk, however, and only there, lays the freedom of Art.
Albert Camus
The purpose of a writer is to keep civilization from destroying itself.
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
To lose the touch of flowers and women's hands is the supreme separation.
Albert Camus
A stranger to myself and to the world, armed solely with a thought that negates itself as soon as it asserts, what is this condition in which I can have peace only by refusing to know and to live, in which the appetite for conquest bumps into walls that defy its assaults?
Albert Camus
I have no idea what's awaiting me, or what will happen when this all ends. For the moment I know this: there are sick people and they need curing.
Albert Camus
I enjoyed my own nature to the fullest, and we all know there lies happiness, although, to soothe one another mutually, we occasionally pretend to condemn such joys as selfishness.
Albert Camus
No doubt our love was still there, but quite simply it was unusable, heavy to carry, inert inside of us, sterile as crime or condemnation. It was no longer anything except a patience with no future and a stubborn wait.
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
If nothing had any meaning, you would be right. But there is something that still has a meaning.
Albert Camus
It's a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money.
Albert Camus
An intellectual is someone whose mind watches itself.
Albert Camus
Today we are always as ready to judge as we are to fornicate.
Albert Camus
For the first time, the first, I laid my heart open to the benign indifference of the universe. To feel it so like myself, indeed so brotherly, made me realize that I'd been happy, and that I was happy still.
Albert Camus
Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.
Albert Camus
[Love] is the type of disease that spares neither the intelligent nor the idiotic.
Albert Camus
In order to exist, man must rebel.
Albert Camus
One of the only coherent philosophical positions is thus revolt. It is a constant confrontation between man and his own obscurity.
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
