"All I know of morality I learned..." - Quote by Albert Camus

“Heroism is accessible. Happiness is more difficult.”

“The future is the only kind of property that the masters willingly concede to the slaves.”

“[Love] is the type of disease that spares neither the intelligent nor the idiotic.”

“We should often blush at our noblest deeds if the world were to see all their underlying motives.”

“I bring you this stately matron named Christendom, returning bedraggled, besmirched, and dishonored from pirate raids in Kiao-Chow, Manchuria, South Africa, and the Phillipines, with her soul full of meanness, her pocket full of boodle, and her mouth full of pious hypocrisies. Give her soap and a towel, but hide the looking-glass.”

“Too often, we have failed to enforce international norms when it's inconvenient to do so.”

“We ought to learn from the kine one thing: ruminating.”

“Man is endogenous, and education is his unfolding. The aid we have from others is mechanical, compared with the discoveries of nature in us. What is thus learned is delightful in the doing, and the effect remains.”

“People are not remembered by how few times they fail, but by how often they succeed. Every wrong step is another step forward”
