“Much unhappiness has come into the world because of bewilderment and things left unsaid.”
― Albert Camus

“Nations are not communities and never have been. The history of any country, presented as the history of a family, conceals the fierce conflicts of interest (sometimes exploding, often repressed) between conquerors and conquered, masters and slaves, capitalists and workers, dominators and dominated in race and sex. And in such as world of conflict, a world of victims and executioners, it is the job of thinking people, as Albert Camus suggested, not to be on the side of the executioners.”
― Howard Zinn, A People’s History of the United States: 1492 - Present

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.”

“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.

― Albert Camus
