Text Quotes
It is normal to give away a little of one’s life in order not to lose it all  (Albert Camus Quotes) Man is an idea, and a precious small idea once he turns his back on love  (Albert Camus Quotes) Methods of thought which claim to give the lead to our world in the name of revolution have become, in reality, ideologies of consent and not of rebellion  (Albert Camus Quotes) Note, besides, that it is no more immoral to directly rob citizens than to slip indirect taxes into the price of goods that they cannot do without  (Albert Camus Quotes) The desire for possession is insatiable, to such a point that it can survive even love itself. To love, therefore, is to sterilize the person one loves  (Albert Camus Quotes) The world is never quiet, even its silence eternally resounds with the same notes, in vibrations which escape our ears. As for those that we perceive, they carry sounds to us, occasionally a chord, never a melody  (Albert Camus Quotes) Truth, like light, blinds. Falsehood, on the contrary, is a beautiful twilight that enhances every object  (Albert Camus Quotes) We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die  (Albert Camus Quotes) The entire history of mankind is, in any case, nothing but a prolonged fight to the death for the conquest of universal prestige and absolute power  (Albert Camus Quotes) Perhaps we cannot prevent this world from being a world in which children are tortured. But we can reduce the number of tortured children  (Albert Camus Quotes) We turn our backs on nature; we are ashamed of beauty. Our wretched tragedies have a smell of the office clinging to them, and the blood that trickles from them is the color of printer’s ink  (Albert Camus Quotes) I was assailed by memories of a life that wasn’t mine anymore, but one in which I’d found the simplest and most lasting joys  (Albert Camus Quotes) Since we’re all going to die, it’s obvious that when and how don’t matter  (Albert Camus Quotes) I may not have been sure about what really did interest me, but I was absolutely sure about what didn’t  (Albert Camus Quotes) To two men living the same number of years, the world always provides the same sum of experiences. It is up to us to be conscious of them  (Albert Camus Quotes) The important thing isn’t the soundness or otherwise of the argument, but for it to make you think  (Albert Camus Quotes) Only it takes time to be happy. A lot of time. Happiness, too, is a long patience  (Albert Camus Quotes) It takes time to live. Like any work of art, life needs to be thought about  (Albert Camus Quotes) The absurd is essentially a divorce. It lies in neither of the elements compared; it is born of their confrontation  (Albert Camus Quotes) Somebody has to have the last word. If not, every argument could be opposed by another and we’d never be done with it  (Albert Camus Quotes) After all perhaps the greatness of art lies in the perpetual tension between beauty and pain, the love of men and the madness of creation, unbearable solitude and the exhausting crowd, rejection and consent  (Albert Camus Quotes) Great feelings take with them their own universe, splendid or abject. They light up with their passion an exclusive world in which they recognize their climate  (Albert Camus Quotes) What, in fact, is a novel but a universe in which action is endowed with form, where final words are pronounced, where people possess one another completely, and where life assumes the aspect of destiny?  (Albert Camus Quotes) To those who despair of everything reason cannot provide a faith, but only passion, and in this case it must be the same passion that lay at the root of the despair, namely humiliation and hatred  (Albert Camus Quotes) Absolute virtue is impossible and the republic of forgiveness leads, with implacable logic, to the republic of the guillotine  (Albert Camus Quotes) To live is to hurt others, and through others, to hurt oneself. Cruel earth! How can we manage not to touch anything? To find what ultimate exile?  (Albert Camus Quotes) Instead of killing and dying in order to produce the being that we are not, we have to live and let live in order to create what we are  (Albert Camus Quotes) Whoever today speaks of human existence in terms of power, efficiency, and historical tasks is an actual or potential assassin  (Albert Camus Quotes) More and more, when faced with the world of men, the only reaction is one of individualism. Man alone is an end unto himself. Everything one tries to do for the common good ends in failure  (Albert Camus Quotes) Children will still die unjustly even in a perfect society. Even by his greatest effort, man can only propose to diminish, arithmetically, the sufferings of the world  (Albert Camus Quotes)
