Checking in with...............................

 ................................Albert Camus:

One does not decide the truth of a thought according to whether it is right-wing or left-wing.

Poor and free rather than rich and enslaved. Of course, men want to be both rich and free, and this is what leads them at times to be poor and enslaved.

Every ideology is contrary to human psychology.

Man is the only creature who refuses to be what he is.

The ancients, even though they believed in destiny, believed primarily in nature, in which they participated wholeheartedly. To rebel against nature amounted to rebelling against oneself. It was butting one's head against a wall.

It takes time to live. Like any work of art, life needs to be thought about.

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

The aim of art, the aim of a life can only be to increase the sum of freedom and responsibility to be found in every man and in the world. It cannot, under any circumstances, be to reduce or suppress that freedom, even temporarily.

Do not wait for the Last Judgment. It takes place every day.
