Quotes

They went on living in poverty, though they were no longer in need, but they were set in their ways, and they looked on life with a resigned suspicion; they loved it as animals do, but they knew from experience that it would regularly give birth to disaster without even showing any sign that it was carrying it. Albert Camus
Albert Camus quote: "I love life - that’s my real weakness. I love it so much that..."
I love life - that’s my real weakness. I love it so much that I am incapable of imagining what is not life. Albert Camus
Albert Camus quote: "My life was lucky so that I met, I loved (and disappointed)..."
My life was lucky so that I met, I loved (and disappointed) only outstanding people. Albert Camus
As for me, I longed to love as some people long to cry. I felt that every hour I slept now would be an hour stolen from life. Albert Camus
Albert Camus quote: "Nothing in life is worth,turning your back on,if you love it."
Nothing in life is worth,turning your back on,if you love it. Albert Camus
She was wearing one of my pajama suits, and had the sleeves rolled up. When she laughed I wanted her again. A moment later she asked me if I loved her. I said that sort of question had no meaning, really; but I supposed I didn't. She looked sad for a bit, but when we were getting our lunch ready she brightened up and started laughing and when she laughs I always want to kiss her. Albert Camus
She was wearing a pair of my pajamas with the sleeves rolled up. When she laughed I wanted her again. A minute later she asked me if I loved her. I told her it didn’t mean anything but that I didn’t think so. She looked sad. Albert Camus
Albert Camus quote: "There's the risk of being loved...and that would keep me from..."
There's the risk of being loved...and that would keep me from being happy. Albert Camus
At that moment he knew what his mother was thinking, and that she loved him. But he knew, too, that to love someone means relatively little; or, rather, that love is never strong enough to find the words befitting it. Thus he and his mother would always love each other silently. Albert Camus
I would like to be able to breath? to be able to love her by memory or fidelity. But my heart aches. I love you continuously, intensely. Albert Camus
The love of God is a hard love. It demands total self-surrender, disdain of our human personality. And yet it alone can reconcile us to suffering and the deaths of children, it alone can justify them, since we cannot understand them, and we can only make God's will ours. Albert Camus
Rieux knew what the old man was thinking at that moment as he wept, and he thought the same: that this world without love was like a dead world and that there always comes a time when one grows tired of prisons, work and courage, and years for the face of another human being and the wondering, affectionate heart. Albert Camus
He desired her vaguely but without convinction. They walked together. He suddenly realized that she had always been very decent to him. She had accepted him as he was and had spared him a great deal of loneliness. He had been unfair: while his imagination and vanity had given her too much importance, his pride had given her too little. He discovered the cruel paradox by which we always deceive ourselves twice about the people we love -- first to their advantage, then to their disadvantage.... Albert Camus
On the whole, men are more good than bad; that, however, isn't the real point. But they are more or less ignorant, and it is this that we call vice or virtue; the most incorrigible vice being that of an ignorance that fancies it knows everything and therefore claims for itself the right to kill. The soul of the murderer is blind; and there can be no true goodness nor true love without the utmost clear-sightedness. Albert Camus
To be born to create, to love, to win at games is to be born to live in time of peace. But war teaches us to lose everything and become what we were not. It all becomes a question of style. Albert Camus
