Popular Dialogues

"Doctor Bernard Rieux: [to Father Paneloux] I've spent too long in hospitals to accept the notion of collective punishment. If I believed in an all-powerful God, I'd give up practicing medicine. No one wants to believe in a God like that. Not even you."

"[last lines] Doctor Bernard Rieux: [quoting] Our happiness stands forever threatened, for the plague Bacillus neither dies nor disappears. It can lie dormant for years sand years, in furniture and in linen chests. Biding its time in bedrooms, in cellars, in trunks, in handkerchiefs, and in the odd scrap of paper. And the day will come when, to the bane and enlightenment of man, the plague will awaken its rats and send them forth to die in a happy city. - Albert Camus, La Peste, 1947"
