Albert Camus

True generosity toward the future consists in giving everything to the present.

Albert Camus

Truth is not a virtue, but a passion. It is never charitable.

Albert Camus

Virtue cannot separate itself from reality without becoming a principle of evil.

Albert Camus

We all carry within us places of exile, our crimes, our ravages. Our task is not to unleash them on the world; it is to transform them in ourselves and others.

Albert Camus

We are not certain, we are never certain. If we were we could reach some conclusions, and we could, at last, make others take us seriously.

Albert Camus

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

Albert Camus

We have to live and let live in order to create what we are.

Albert Camus

We need the sweet pain of anticipation to tell us we are really alive.

Albert Camus

We rarely confide in those who are better than we are.

Albert Camus

What is called a reason for living is also an excellent reason for dying.

Albert Camus
