Whatever our personal weaknesses may be, the nobility of our craft - TopicsExpress



          

Whatever our personal weaknesses may be, the nobility of our craft [writing] will always be rooted in two commitments, difficult to maintain: the refusal to lie about what one knows and the resistance to oppression. The greatest renown today consists in being admired or hated without having been read. There is but one truly serious philosophical problem, and that is suicide. Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy. All the rest afterwards. The only thing is to decide which is the most aesthetic form of suicide, marriage and a 40-hour-a-week job, or a revolver. -- Albert Camus
