Even Tyrants Need Reasons

'The welfare of the people in particular 
has always been the alibi of tyrants, 
and it provides the further advantage 
of giving the servants of tyranny a good conscience.'

-Algerian/French philosopher Albert Camus (1913-60) 

Pascifism Redux

'There are causes worth dying for
but none that are worth killing for'

-Albert Camus

then any honest attempt at autobiography
will be an act of self-destruction." - Albert Camus
