To me, art is not a solitary delight. It is a means of stirring the greatest number of men by providing them with a privileged image of our common joys and woes.

The realization that life is absurd cannot be an end, but only a beginning.

I have no friends, I only have accomplices now. On the other hand, my accomplices are more numerous than my friends: they are the human race.

Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken.

A lot of jobs don't allow you to be who you are. There is dignity in work only when it is work freely accepted.

Thinking is learning all over again how to see, directing one's consciousness, making of every image a privileged place.

Wandering seemed no more than the happiness of an anxious man.
