More quotes by Albert Camus

"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."
"How can sincerity be a condition of friendship? A taste for truth at any cost is a passion which spares nothing."
"An intellectual? Yes. And never deny it. An intellectual is someone whose mind watches itself. I like this, because I am happy to be both halves, the watcher and the watched. "Can they be brought together?"This is a practical question. We must get down to it. "I despise intelligence"really means: "I cannot bear my doubts."
"Do not wait for the last judgment. It comes every day."
"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."
