There is scarcely any passion without struggle.

Struggle, Passion, Existentialism

Albert Camus (2012). “The Myth of Sisyphus: And Other Essays”, p.73, Vintage

The struggle to the top alone will make a human heart SWELL.

Struggle, Heart, Humans

One must imagine Sisyphus happy.

Struggle, Imagine, Flakes

Le Mythe de Sisyphe (The Myth of Sisyphus) "The Myth of Sisyphus" (1942)

In order to speak about all and to all, one has to speak of what all know and of the reality common to us all. The sea, rains, necessity, desire, the struggle against death... these are things that unite us all.

Rain, Struggle, Reality

Albert Camus (2012). “Resistance, Rebellion, and Death: Essays”, p.258, Vintage

It's not the struggle that makes us artists, but Art that makes us struggle.

Art, Struggle, Artist

Do you believe in God, doctor?" No - but what does that really mean? I'm fumbling in the dark, struggling to make something out. But I've long ceased finding that original.

Believe, Struggle, Mean

ALBERT CAMUS (1971). “NOBEL PRIZE LIBRARY”

I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain. One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night-filled mountain, in itself, forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.

Struggle, Heart, Night

Le Mythe de Sisyphe (The Myth of Sisyphus) "The Myth of Sisyphus" (1942)

The struggle to reach the top is itself enough to fulfill the heart of man. One must believe that Sisyphus is happy.

Believe, Struggle, Heart

In the next few years the struggle will not be between utopia and reality, but between different utopias, each trying to impose itself on reality ... we can no longer hope to save everything, but ... we can at least try to save lives, so that some kind of future, if perhaps not the ideal one, will remain possible.

Struggle, Reality, Years

But in order to speak about all and to all, one has to speak of what all know and of the reality common to us all. The seas, rains, necessity, desire, the struggle against death--these are things that unite us all. We resemble one another in what we see together, in what we suffer together. Dreams change from individual, but the reality of the world is common to us all. Striving towards realism is therefore legitimate, for it is basically related to the artistic adventure.

Dream, Rain, Struggle

The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.

Struggle, Heart, Hard Times

Le Mythe de Sisyphe (The Myth of Sisyphus) "The Myth of Sisyphus" (1942)

If I convince myself that this life has no other aspect than that of the absurd, if I feel that its whole equilibrium depends on that perpetual opposition between my conscious revolt and the darkness in which it struggles, if I admit that my freedom has no meaning except in relation to its limited fate, then I must say that what counts is not the best living but the most living.

Struggle, Fate, Darkness

Albert Camus (2012). “The Myth of Sisyphus: And Other Essays”, p.60, Vintage

Since the order of the world is shaped by death, mightn't it be better for God if we refuse to believe in Him, and struggle with all our might against death without raising our eyes towards the heaven where He sits in silence?

Believe, Struggle, Eye

Albert Camus (1948). “The Plague”, Vintage

Germany collapsed as a result of having engaged in a struggle for empire with the concepts of provincial politics.

War, Struggle, World

Albert Camus (2012). “The Rebel: An Essay on Man in Revolt”, p.180, Vintage

I shall not, as far as I am concerned, try to pass myself off as a Christian in your presence. I share with you the same revulsion from evil. But I do not share your hope, and I continue to struggle against this universe in which children suffer and die.

Christian, Children, Struggle

Those who love, friends and lovers, know that love is not only a blinding flash, but also a long and painful struggle in the darkness for the realization of definitive recognition and reconciliation.

Struggle, Love Is, Long
