Albert Camus

"It is a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money."

"Without freedom, no art; art lives only on the restraints it imposes on itself, and dies of all others."

"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."

"In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer."

"You are forgiven for your happiness and your successes only if you generously consent to share them."

"Where would his torture be, indeed, if at every step the hope of succeeding upheld him?"

"How can sincerity be a condition of friendship? A taste for truth at any cost is a passion which spares nothing."

"Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal."

"Why should it be essential to love rarely in order to love much?"

"Nothing in life is worth,turning your back on,if you love it."

"որևէ քաղաք ճանաչելու ամենաճիշտ ձևերից մեկն էլ իմանալն է, թե ինչպե՞ս են այնտեղ աշխատում, ինչպե՞ս են սիրում, և ինչպե՞ս են մեռնում:"

"A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened."

"Live to the point of tears."

"Happiness and the absurd are two sons of the same earth. They are inseparable."

"Every achievement is a servitude. It compels us to a higher achievement."

"You are forgiven for your happiness and your successes only if you generously consent to share them."

"...since the order of the world is shaped by death, mightn't it be better for God if we refuse to believe in Him and struggle with all our might against death, without raising our eyes towards the heaven where He sits in silence?"

"There is but one truly serious philosophical problem and that is suicide. Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy. All the rest — whether or not the world has three dimensions, whether the mind has nine or twelve categories — comes afterwards. These are games; one must first answer."

"I know of only one duty, and that is to love."

"Au milieu de l'hiver, j'ai découvert en moi un invincible été."
