Quote by -Albert Camus

"Without work, all life goes rotten. But when work is soulless, life stifles and dies."
Quote by -Albert Camus

Quote by -Albert Camus
"Abstract Art: A product of the untalented, sold by the unprincipled to the utterly bewildered."
Quote by -Albert Camus
"To know oneself, one should assert oneself. Psychology is action, not thinking about oneself. We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die."
Quote by -Albert Camus
“Men are never really willing to die except for the sake of freedom: therefore they do not believe in dying completely.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“Since we’re all going to die, it’s obvious that when and how don’t matter.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“I’ve seen of enough of people who die for an idea. I don’t believe in heroism; I know it’s easy and I’ve learned it can be murderous. What interests me is living and dying for what one loves.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“A man wants to earn money in order to be happy, and his whole effort and the best of a life are devoted to the earning of that money. Happiness is forgotten; the means are taken for the end.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“The best are led to make greater demands upon themselves. As for those who succumb, they did not deserve to survive.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“And then came human beings; humans wanted to cling but there was nothing to cling to.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“It is normal to give away a little of one’s life in order not to lose it all.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“Truth, like light, blinds. Falsehood, on the contrary, is a beautiful twilight that enhances every object.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“I don’t know whether this world has a meaning that transcends it. But I know that I cannot know that meaning and that it is impossible for me just now to know it.”
Quote by -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.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“We rarely confide in those who are better than we. Most often, on the other hand, we confess to those who are like us and who share our weaknesses. Hence we don’t want to improve ourselves and be bettered, for we should first have to be judged in default. We merely wish to be pitied and encouraged in the course we have chosen.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“The absurd hero’s refusal to hope becomes his singular ability to live in the present with passion.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“For who would dare to assert that eternal happiness can compensate for a single moment’s human suffering.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
“Believe me, for certain men at least, not taking what one doesn’t desire is the hardest thing in the world.”
Quote by -Albert Camus
