Albert Camus
Old women even forget how to love their sons. The heart gets worn out, Monsieur.
Albert Camus
The first concern of any dictatorship is, consequently, to subjugate both labor and culture.
Albert Camus
It is necessary to fall in love... if only to provide an alibi for all the random despair you are going to feel anyway.
Albert Camus
Imagination offers people consolation for what they cannot be, and humor for what they actually are.
Albert Camus
Freedom is not constituted primarily of privileges but of responsibilities.
Albert Camus
