Letter: Wisdom of Camus
| Published: 02-07-2017 12:01 AM |
On Jan. 1, 1940, just four months before France was invaded, Albert Camus wrote in the newspaper Le Soir Republicain the following to his countrymen, which is very appropriate for Americans today.
“It is vain to wish for happiness this year, but essential to work to construct it. Wish for nothing, but accomplish something. Do not wait for a destiny built from start to finish by others, when that destiny is still in our hands.”
