What's natural is the microbe...

What's natural is the microbe. All the rest-heath, integrity, purity (if you like)-is a product of the human will, of a vigilance that must never falter. The good man, the man who infects hardly anyone, is the man who has the fewest lapses of attention.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

I have the loftiest idea, and...

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 1179 quotes

Holland is a dream, Monsieur,...

Holland is a dream, Monsieur, a dream of gold and smoke-smokier by day, more gilded by night. And night and day that dream is peopled with Lohengrins like these, dreamily riding their black bicycles with high handle-bars, funereal swans constantly drifting throughout the whole country, around the seas, along the canals.

The more I accuse myself, the more right I have to judge you. Even better, I make you judge yourself, which comforts me the more.

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 ...

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.

Great ideas come into the world as gently as doves.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

But when a man has had only four hours' sleep he isn't sentimental. He sees things as they are: that is to say, he sees them in the garish light of justice; hideous, witless justice.

Albert Camus 1179 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.

[Many artists], even the grea...

[Many artists], even the greatest ones, are not sure of their own existence. So they search for proof, they judge, they condemn. It strengthens them, it is the beginnings of existence. They are alone!

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

When love ceases to be tragic...

When love ceases to be tragic it is something else and the individual again throws himself in search of tragedy.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

Because there is nothing here...

Because there is nothing here than invites us to cherish unhappy lovers. Nothing is more vain than to die for love. What we ought to do is live.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

And I too, felt ready to star...

And I too, felt ready to start life all over again. It was as if that great rush of anger had washed me clean, emptied me of hope, and, gazing up at the dark sky spangled with its signs and stars, for the first time, the first, I laid my heart open to the benign indifference of the universe.

Albert Camus 1179 quotes

The entire history of mankind...

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.

Nothing can discourage the appetite for divinity in the heart of man.
