“You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.”

“Happiness and the absurd are two sons of the same earth. They are inseparable.”

“It is a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money.”

“A man wants to earn money in order to be happy, and his whole effort and the best of a life are devoted to the earning of that money. Happiness is forgotten; the means are taken for the end.”

“Nothing in life is worth,turning your back on,if you love it.”

“You are forgiven for your happiness and your successes only if you generously consent to share them.”

“No explanation is ever as good as not having one.”

“You don't get explanations in real life. You just get moments that are absolutely, utterly, inexplicably odd.”

“I didnt like having to explain to them, so I just shut up, smoked a cigarette, and looked at the sea.”
