judgment, human being, nature, history, nonsense, rebelliousnessAbstract
There are some free persons that have something like a magnetic needle, so in a dark time we need what Albert Camus offers: a living example (not a list of answers) of integrity, compassion and wise judgment. He had to choose (maybe like everybody) between nonsense and rebelliousness, and after between a daily attitude of fear or confidence. Finally, Camus tells us that the nature of human being and the beauty of the world must balance the historical ambitions.
