Fortunately!”

    Albert Camus
    “An intellectual? Yes. And never deny it. An intellectual is someone whose mind watches itself. I like this, because I am happy to be both halves, the watcher and the watched. "Can they be brought together?" This is a practical question. We must get down to it. "I despise intelligence" really means: "I cannot bear my doubts.”

    Albert Camus
    “از همه مهمتر آنکه حرف رفقایتان را، وقتی از شما می‌خواهند که با آنها صادق و صریح باشید، باور نکنید. آنها فقط امیدوارند که شما در تصور خوبی که از خویش دارند نگهشان دارید و در عین حال این اطمینان اضافی را هم که از قول صراحت شما بیرون کشیده‌اند توشه ی راهشان کنید.”

    Albert Camus
    “Thus I progressed on the surface of life, in the realm of words as it were, never in reality. All those books barely read, those friends barely loved, those cities barely visited, those women barely possessed! I went through the gestures out of boredom or absent-mindedness. Then came human beings; they wanted to cling, but there was nothing to cling to, and that was unfortunate--for them. As for me, I forgot. I never remembered anything but myself.”
