A sub-clerk in the post office is the equal of a conqueror if consciousness is common to them. All experiences are indifferent in this regard. There are some that do either a service or a disservice to man. They do him a service if he is conscious. Otherwise, that has no importance: a man's failures imply judgment, not of circumstances, but of himself.
Albert CamusHe who despairs of the human condition is a coward, but he who has hope for it is a fool.
Albert CamusThe laws of nature may be operative up to a certain limit, beyond which they turn against themselves to give birth to the absurd.
