Invincible...................

"In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love.  In the midst of tears, I found there was within me, an invincible smile.  In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm.  I realized, through it all, that...........In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.  And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back."

-Albert Camus

Madame Scherzo recently posted part of this quote.  For reasons unknown, I have always reacted favorably to Camus quotes.  Memory suggested I had multiple Camus posts, although the blog search thing responded that Memory is confused. A quick check of the Oracle Google seeking the origin and context of the quote did not yield satisfaction, but it did yield this:

"Au milieu de l'hiver, j'apprenais enfin qu'il y avait en moi un été invincible." is from Albert Camus' Retour à Tipasa, 1952 (Return to Tipasa, 1952)
