Description
"In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me is an invincible summer."
"Mother died today, or maybe it was yesterday."
"But what is happiness except the simple harmony between a man and the life he leads?"
"The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion"
"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."
"Basically, at the very bottom of life, which seduces us all, there is only absurdity, and more absurdity. And maybe that's what gives us our joy for living, because the only thing that can defeat absurdity is lucidity."
"There is in me an anarchy and frightful disorder. Creating makes me die a thousand deaths, because it means making order, and my entire being rebels against order. But without it I would die, scattered to the winds."
"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."
"I was born poor and without religion, under a happy sky, feeling harmony, not hostility, in nature. I began not by feeling torn, but in plenitude."
"One leader, one people, signifies one master and millions of slaves."
"Every artist preserves deep within him a single source from which, throughout his lifetime, he draws what he is, and what he says. When the source dries up, the work withers and crumbles."
"You have to be very rich or very poor to live without a trade."
"To be famous, in fact, one has only to kill one's landlady." - Albert Camus, 1913-1960
