Albert Camus, Paris 1947
a Cartier Bresson/Magnum Photo

«To destroy everything is to pledge oneself to building without foundations. (...)

He lies, to begin with, when he claims to be a delegate of a central committee which is still non existent and when, to enlist certain sceptics in the actions that he proposes to undertake, he describes the committee as disposing of unlimited resources. He goes still farther by distinguishing between categories of revolutionaries, with those of the first category (by which he means the leaders) reserving the right to consider the rest 'expendable capital'. All the leaders in history may have thought in these terms but they never said so.
But at any rate no revolutionary leader had dared to make this the guiding principle of his conduct. Up to his time no revolution had put at the head of its table of laws the concept that man could be a chattel. Traditionally, recruiting relied on its appeal to courage and to the spirit of self sacrifice. But he decided that that the sceptics could be terrorized or blackmailed and the believers deceived. Even pseudo revolutionaries could still be used, if they were urged on systematically to perform the most dangerous deeds.

As for the oppressed, since they were going to be saved once and for all, they could be oppressed still more.»

[ ALBERT CAMUS - L' Homme Revolte, 1951 ]
