We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die. – Albert Camus
Without culture, and the relative freedom it implies, society, even when perfect, is but a jungle. This is why any authentic creation is a gift to the future. – Albert Camus
We all carry within us our places of exile, our crimes, and our ravages. But our task is not to unleash them on the world; it is to fight them in ourselves and in others. – Albert Camus
More and more, when faced with the world of men, the only reaction is one of individualism. Man alone is an end unto himself. Everything one tries to do for the common good ends in failure. – Albert Camus
I think in the end, when youre famous, people like to narrow you down to a few personality traits. I think Ive just become this ambitious, say-whatevers-on-her-mind, intimidating person. And thats part of my personality, but its certainly not anywhere near the whole thing. – Madonna Ciccone
