Albert Camus
Image
I continue to believe that this world has no ultimate meaning. But I know that something in it has a meaning and that is man, because he is the only creature to insist on having one
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
Image
When love ceases to be tragic it is something else and the individual again throws himself in search of tragedy.
Albert Camus
Image
A character is never the author who created him. It is quite likely, however, that an author may be all his characters simultaneously.

I had the whole sky in my eyes and it was blue and gold.
Albert Camus
Image
Believe me, religions are on the wrong track the moment they moralize and fulminate commandments. God is not needed to create guilt or to punish. Our fellow men suffice, aided by ourselves.
Albert Camus

Liberty is the right not to lie.
Albert Camus
Image
You know, [women] do not really condemn any weakness: rather, they try to humiliate or disarm our strengths. That is why women arethe reward, not of the warrior, but of the criminal.
