"No tenemos tiempo para ser nosotros mismos. Solo tenemos tiempo para ser felices."

"Pero a nuestra edad no se ama, veamos. Se gusta uno a otro, esto es todo. Más tarde, cuando uno es viejo e impotente, puede amar. A nuestra edad, creemos que amamos.Esto es todo, vaya."

"When I look at my life and its secret colors, I feel like bursting into tears. Like that sky. It's rain and sun both, noon and midnight. ... I think of the lips I've kissed, and of the wretched child I was, and of the madness of life and the ambition that sometimes carries me away. I'm all those things at once. I'm sure there are times when you wouldn't even recognize me. Extreme in misery, excessive in happiness—I can't say it."

"You have so much inside you, and the noblest happiness of all. Don’t just wait for a man to come along. That’s the mistake so many women make. Find your happiness in yourself." A Happy Death, Albert Camus
