Many fledgling moralists in those days were going about our town proclaiming there was nothing to be done about it and we should bow to the inevitable. And Tarrou, Rieux, and their friends might give one answer or another, but its conclusion was always the same, their certitude that a fight must be put up, in this way or that, and there must be no bowing down... There was nothing admirable about this attitude; it was merely logical.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

You know, [women] do not real...

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.

We are rebels for a cause, poets with a dream , and we won't let this world die without a fight.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

Do you believe in God, doctor?" No - but what does that really mean? I'm fumbling in the dark, struggling to make something out. But I've long ceased finding that original.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

The day of my arrest I was first put in a room where there were already several other prisoners, most of them Arabs. They laughed when they saw me. Then they asked what I was in for. I said I'd killed an Arab and they were all silent

Chacun exige d'e" tre innocent, a' tout prix, me" me si, pour cela, il faut accuser le genre humain et le ciel. Everyone insists on his or her innocence, at all costs, even if it means accusing the rest of the human race and heaven.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

A single sentence will suffice for modern man. He fornicated and read the papers. After that vigorous definition, the subject will be, if I may say so, exhausted.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

The mistake that men make is ...

The mistake that men make is that they do not believe in theater. Otherwise, they would know that every man is allowed to play thecelestial tragedies and to become god. All he has to do is harden his heart.

For ever, I shall be a stranger to myself.

Everybody knows life isn't worth living.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

Thus I progressed on the surf...

Thus I progressed on the surface of life, in the realm of words as it were, never in reality. All those books barely read, those friends barely loved, those cities barely visited, those women barely possessed! I went through the gestures out of boredom or absent-mindedness. Then came human beings; they wanted to cling, but there was nothing to cling to, and that was unfortunate--for them. As for me, I forgot. I never remembered anything but myself.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

But,' I reminded myself, 'it'...

But,' I reminded myself, 'it's common knowledge that life isn't worth living, anyhow.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

But the world itself has no reason, and I can say so, I who have experienced it all, from the creation to the destruction.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

Have you noticed that only death arouses our emotions? How we love thee friends who have just passed away, right? How we admire those master who no longer speak, their mouths full of dirt. We them we are not obligated.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

In normal times all of us know, whether consciously or not, that there is no love which can't be bettered; nevertheless, we reconcile ourselves more or less easily to the fact that ours has never risen above the average.

I felt the urge to reassure him that I was like everybody else, just like everybody else.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

Crime too is a form of solitude, even if one thousand get together to commit it. And it is right for me to die alone, after having lived and killed alone.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

There may be responsible persons, but there are no guilty ones.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

There are always reasons for murdering a man. But there is no justification for his existence.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

To begin with, poor people?s memory is less nourished than that of a rich; it has fewer landmarks in space because they seldom leave the place where they live, and fewer reference points in time throughtout lives that are grey and featureless.
