Albert Camus: “A Real Life”

Photographers Unknown, A Collection of Black and Whites for a Monday Evening

“…if the actor gave his performance without knowing that he was in a play, then his tears would be real tears and his life a real life. And whenever I think of this pain and joy that rise up in me, I am carried away by the knowledge that the game I am playing is the most serious and exciting there is.” 

—Albert Camus, Notebooks, 1935-1951
