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.”
Albert Camus, The Fall

“At any street corner the feeling of absurdity can strike any man in the face.”

Albert Camus
“He had been bored, that's all, bored like most people. Hence he had made himself out of whole cloth a life full of complications and drama. Something must happen - and that explains most human commitments. Something must happen, even loveless slavery, even war or death. Hurray then for funerals!”
Albert Camus, The Fall

Albert Camus
“I know that man is capable of great deeds. But if he isn't capable of great emotion, well, he leaves me cold.”
Albert Camus, The Plague
