Albert Camus quotes

If Christianity is pessimistic as to man, it is optimistic as to human destiny. Well, I can say that, pessimistic as to human destiny, I am optimistic as to man.
- Albert Camus
There is but one truly serious philosophical problem...
- Albert Camus
Those who weep for the happy periods which they encounter in history acknowledge what they want; not the alleviation but the silencing of misery.
- Albert Camus
Freedom is nothing else but a chance to be better.
- Albert Camus
The world is never quiet, even its silence eternally resounds with the same notes, in vibrations which escape our ears. As for those that we perceive, they carry sounds to us, occasionally a chord, never a melody.
- Albert Camus
