- Albert Camus -

(French writer, 1913-1960)

Info "Do not wait for the last judgment. It takes place every day."

Info "It is not much to be able to do violence when you have been simply preparing for it for years and when violence is more natural to you than thinking. It is a great deal, on the other hand, to face torture and death when you know for a fact that hatred and violence are empty things in themselves. It is a great deal to fight while despising war, to accept losing everything while still preferring happiness, to face destruction while cherishing the idea of a higher civilization."

Info "Politics and the fate of mankind are formed by men without ideals and without greatness. Those who have greatness within them do not go in for politics."
