The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus is happy.Albert Camus
There is no fate that cannot be surmounted by scorn.Albert Camus
A man devoid of hope and conscious of being so has ceased to belong to the future.Albert Camus
The absurd is the essential concept and the first truth.Albert Camus
The gods had condemned Sisyphus to ceaselessly rolling a rock to the top of a mountain, whence the stone would fall back of its own weight.Albert Camus
You have already grasped that Sisyphus is the absurd hero. He is, as much through his passions as through his torture.Albert Camus
There is scarcely any passion without struggle.Albert Camus
If the descent is thus sometimes performed in sorrow, it can also take place in joy.Albert Camus
One always finds one’s burden again.Albert Camus
I conclude that all is well. This world henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile.Albert Camus
His fate belongs to him. His rock is his thing.Albert Camus
The absurd depends as much on man as on the world. It is all that about him which is unjustifiable.Albert Camus
The absurd man will not commit suicide; he wants to live, without relinquishing any of his certainty, without a future, without hope, without illusions ... and without resignation either.Albert Camus
This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night-filled mountain, in itself, forms a world.Albert Camus
