"The act of love . . ...." - Quote by Albert Camus

“Art does not tolerate reason.”

“Between history and the eternal I have chosen history because I like certainties. Of it, at least, I am certain, and how can I deny this force crushing me.”

“I sometimes need to write things which I cannot completely control but which therefore prove that what is in me is stronger than I am.”

“Only lovers know the value and magnanimity of truth.”

“Connect. Embrace. Liberate. Love somebody. Just one person. And then spread that to two. And as many as you can. You'll see the difference it makes.”

“Love comes with hunger.”

“I've done a lot of things I'm not proud of, such as getting my girlfriend pregnant when I was 23 and the way I handled that.”

“We only confess our little faults to persuade people that we have no big ones.”

“A man who has broken with his past feels a different man. He will not feel it a shame to confess his past wrongs, for the simple reason that these wrongs do not touch him at all.”
