Eat that burger if it makes you happy. “I would like to be able to breathe— to be able to love her by memory or fidelity. Agree?) 91 Albert Camus Quotes on Death, Suicide, God, Truth, Philosophy, Fear, Rebellion, Freedom, and More BY SOFO ARCHON Here are some of my favorite quotes from the French philosopher Albert Camus on topics including life and happiness, death and suicide, rebellion freedom, god and truth, fear and time, art … But my heart aches. That’s a question that Albert Camus dug into in his novels, plays, and essays. Suicide and despair means the absurdity of the world has broken you, but Camus thinks that because the world is absurd we should focus on what gives us meaning and satisfaction as individuals. “That is love, to give away everything, to sacrifice everything, without the slightest desire to get anything in return.” – Albert Camus (I found this to be one of the most inspirational Albert Camus quotes on love. For Camus, the absurd man is the man who embraces his flaws and accepts his punishment for them and remains happy anyway. Camus — who years earlier had asserted that “there is no love of life without despair of life” — answers: All I can do is reply on my own behalf, realizing that what I say is relative. “Sometimes, carrying on, just carrying on, is the superhuman achievement.” In the notes found with the manuscript at the accident site—the briefcase was flung from the car at the moment of impact—Camus wrote: “And what he wanted most in the world, which was for his mother to read everything that was his life and his being, that was impossible. I love you continuously, intensely.” ― Albert Camus, Notebooks 1951-1959 60. Albert Camus wrote in his journals that if he ‘had to write a book on morality, it would have a hundred pages and ninety-nine would be blank’. And M. Sartre's hero does not perhaps give us the real meaning of his anguish when he insists on those aspects of man he finds repugnant, instead of basing his reasons for despair on certain of man's signs of greatness. The loss of love is the loss of all rights, even though one had them all. If those whom we begin to love could know us as we were before meeting them … they could perceive what they have made of us. On the last page he said he would write, ‘I recognise only one duty, and that is to love’. It demands total self-surrender, disdain of our human personality. Yet Camus, like Cormery, holds fast to a desperate love for his mother. Camus was too much of his time to see this. – Albert Camus. But Camus didn’t tell us (at least not directly) what love is, … This absurd man is arguably present, at least sometimes, in each of us. And yet it alone can reconcile us to suffering and the deaths of children, it alone can justify them, since we cannot understand them, and we can only make God's will ours. Without beauty, love, or danger it would be almost easy to live. Keep hoping someone will call. It is a dialectic of loss and love that cannot be limited to the world as we know it and can only complete itself in a completed ruin of the world's ability to offer us the belittling of time it is. But love and hope keep us going. Accepting the absurdity of everything around us is one step, a necessary experience: it should not become a dead end. The love of God is a hard love. 61. Love someone with all your being.
