“Man is the only creature who refuses to be what he is.”
Albert Camus (via gill-man)
A Tragos favorite, for its skeptical pessimism. The quote is from The Rebel.
The following sentence is:
“The question is: do we know if this refusal can only lead to the destruction of others and of himself…”
— L’Homme révolté, Gallimard, 1951, p. 24, my transl.
[“L’homme est la seule créature qui refuse d’être ce qu’elle est. La question est de savoir si ce refus ne peut l’amener qu’à la destruction des autres et de lui-même…”]
(via apoplecticskeptic)
