7 November 1913 was the birthdate of Albert Camus, French author and philosopher. 10 quotes:
- Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.
- God is not needed to create guilt or to punish. Our fellow men suffice, aided by ourselves.
- Whoever gives nothing, has nothing. The greatest misfortune is not to be unloved, but not to love.
- There is no sun without shadow, and it is essential to know the night.
- There are causes worth dying for, but none worth killing for.
- I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live as if there isn't and to die to find out that there is.
- It is necessary to fall in love... if only to provide an alibi for all the random despair you are going to feel anyway.
- In order to be created, a work of art must first make use of the dark forces of the soul.
- Life is the result of all your choices.
- A true masterpiece does not tell everything.
