Albert Camus
“Should I kill myself, or have a cup of coffee? But in the end one needs more courage to live than to kill himself.”
Albert Camus, A Happy Death

Albert Camus
“You have so much inside you, and the noblest happiness of all. Don’t just wait for a man to come along. That’s the mistake so many women make. Find your happiness in yourself.”
Albert Camus, A Happy Death

Charles Bukowski
“No Help of that

There is a place in the heart that will never be filled a space. And even during the best moments and the greatest times we will know it We will know it more that ever. There is a place in the heart that will never be filled and we will wait and wait in that place.”
Charles Bukowski, You Get So Alone at Times That it Just Makes Sense

Albert Camus
“He realized now that to be afraid of this death he was staring at with animal terror meant to be afraid of life. Fear of dying justified a limitless attachment to what is alive in man. And all those who had not made the gestures necessary to live their lives, all those who feared and exalted impotence— they were afraid of death because of the sanction it gave to a life in which they had not been involved. They had not lived enough, never having lived at all. And death was a kind of gesture, forever withholding water from the traveler vainly seeking to slake his thirst. But for the others, it was the fatal and tender gesture that erases and denies, smiling at gratitude as at rebellion.”
Albert Camus, A Happy Death

Albert Camus
“It takes time to live. Like any work of art, life needs to be thought about.”
Albert Camus, A Happy Death
