It’s like an actor’s syndrome where every character plays his role and dies each time his role has finished. Camus starts his book asking to the reader. It actually kind of makes sense to be evil and selfish, all you have is a couple of years to live, you want to experience the best possible years of existence because as we all know there is nothing after death, and you've only got a maximum of 100 years. In 1942, Albert Camus, the 1957 Nobel Prize winner for literature. Life is meaningless, everything you do is meaningless, eventually everyone you know will die, you will eventually die, and there is gonna come a time after your death where no body would know who you are or what you did, do nothing you'll do will ever matter in this universe, nothing good that you ever did will ever matter، and nothing bad that you're ever gonna do will matter, you don't matter neither does anyone, eventually the universe is gonna die and it will turn empty. I haven't read that book, but the way you explain it seems kind of logical that someone whose thinking that way would end up evil. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you weren’t able to join us, my episode is up!
