Text Quotes
Without freedom, no art; art lives only on the restraints it imposes on itself, and dies of all others  (Albert Camus Quotes) You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life  (Albert Camus Quotes) He who despairs of the human condition is a coward, but he who has hope for it is a fool  (Albert Camus Quotes) The nobility of our calling will always be rooted in two commitments difficult to observe: refusal to lie about what we know, and resistance to oppression  (Albert Camus Quotes) It is terrifying to see how easily, in certain people, all dignity collapses. Yet when you think about it, this is quite normal since they only maintain this dignity by constantly striving against their own nature  (Albert Camus Quotes) I have the loftiest idea, and the most passionate one, of art. Much too lofty to agree to subject it to anything. Much too passionate to want to divorce it from anything  (Albert Camus Quotes) I conceived at least one great love in my life, of which I was always the object  (Albert Camus Quotes) In a world that has ceased to believe in sin, the artist is responsible for the preaching  (Albert Camus Quotes) I don’t want to represent man as he is, but only as he might be  (Albert Camus Quotes) A writer cannot put himself today in service of those who make history; he is at the service of those who suffer it  (Albert Camus Quotes) There are some individuals who have too strong a craving, a will, and a nostalgia for happiness ever to reach it. They always retain a bitter and passionate aftertaste, and that’s the best they can hope for  (Albert Camus Quotes) There can be no question of masking the evidence, of suppressing the absurd by denying one of the terms of its equation. It is essential to know whether one can live with it or whether, on the other hand, logic commands one to die of it  (Albert Camus Quotes) A profound thought is in a constant state of becoming; it adopts the experience of a life and assumes its shape  (Albert Camus Quotes) There is a solitude in poverty, but a solitude which restores to each thing its value  (Albert Camus Quotes) N’attendez pas le jugement dernier. Il a lieu tous les jours. Do not wait for the last judgment. It happens every day  (Albert Camus Quotes) Real fulfillment, for the man who allows absolutely free rein to his desires, and who much dominate everything, lies in hatred  (Albert Camus Quotes) Metaphysical rebellion is a claim, motivated by the concept of a complete unity, against the suffering of life and death and a protest against the human condition both for its incompleteness, thanks to death, and its wastefulness, thanks to evil  (Albert Camus Quotes) In every rebellion is to be found the metaphysical demand for unity, the impossibility of capturing it, and the construction of a substitute universe  (Albert Camus Quotes) The contradiction is this: man rejects the world as it is, without accepting the necessity of escaping it. In fact, men cling to the world and by far the majority do not want to abandon it  (Albert Camus Quotes) No human being, even the most passionately loved and passionately loving, is ever in our possession  (Albert Camus Quotes) A nihilist is not one who believes in nothing, but one who does not believe in what exists  (Albert Camus Quotes) The ancients, even though they believed in destiny, believed primarily in nature, in which they participated wholeheartedly. To rebel against nature amounted to rebelling against oneself. It was butting one’s head against a wall  (Albert Camus Quotes) Tout re volutionnaire finit en oppresseur ou en he re tique. Every revolutionary ends as an oppressor or a heretic  (Albert Camus Quotes) Modern conquerors can kill, but do not seem to be able to create. Artists know how to create but cannot really kill. Murderers are only very exceptionally found among artists  (Albert Camus Quotes) A trial cannot be conducted by announcing the general culpability of a civilization. Only the actual deeds which, at least, stank in the nostrils of the entire world were brought to judgment  (Albert Camus Quotes) An intense feeling carries with it its own universe, magnificent or wretched as the case may be  (Albert Camus Quotes) There are always reasons for murdering a man. But there is no justification for his existence  (Albert Camus Quotes) ... there are two types of happiness and I have chosen that of the murderers. For I am happy. There was a time when I thought I had reached the limit of distress. Beyond that limit, there is a sterile and magnificent happiness  (Albert Camus Quotes) People believe a man is in distress because his loved one dies in one day. But his real pain is less futile: it is that he finds out that sadness too does not last. Even pain has no meaning  (Albert Camus Quotes) Truth, like light, is blinding. Lies, on the other hand, are a beautiful dusk, which enhances the value of each object  (Albert Camus Quotes)
