Albert Camus
“The trouble is, there is nothing less spectacular than a pestilence and, if only because they last so long, great misfortunes are monotonous. In the memory of those who have lived through them, the dreadful days of the plague do not seem like vast flames, cruel and magnificent, but rather like an endless trampling that flattened everything in its path.”
Albert Camus, The Plague

Octavia E. Butler
“Things are changing now, too. Our adults haven’t been wiped out by a plague so they’re still anchored in the past, waiting for the good old days to come back. But things have changed a lot, and they’ll change more. Things are always changing. This is just one of the big jumps instead of the little step-by-step changes that are easier to take. People have changed the climate of the world. Now they’re waiting for the old days to come back.”
Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Sower

Albert Camus
“But there always comes a time in history when the person who dares to say that two and two make four is punished by death.”
Albert Camus, The Plague

Albert Camus
“A pestilence does not have human dimensions, so people tell themselves that it is unreal, that it is a bad dream which will end. But it does not always end and, from one bad dream to the next, it is people who end, humanists first of all because they have not prepared themselves.”
Albert Camus, The Plague

Albert Camus
“But this rotten bastard of a disease! Even those who don’t have it, carry it in their hearts.”
Albert Camus, The Plague
