By Albert Camus
'En février 1905, à Moscou, un groupe de terroristes, appartenant au parti socialiste révolutionnaire, organisait un attentat à los angeles bombe contre le grand-duc Serge, oncle du tsar. Cet attentat et les circonstances singulières qui l'ont précédé et suivi font le sujet des Justes. Si extraordinaires que puissent paraître, en effet, certaines des events de cette pièce, elles sont pourtant historiques. Ceci ne veut pas dire, on le verra d'ailleurs, que Les Justes soient une pièce historique. Mais tous les personnages ont réellement existé et se sont conduits comme je le dis. J'ai seulement tâché à rendre vraisemblable ce qui était déjà vrai…
La haine qui pesait sur ces âmes exceptionnelles comme une intolérable souffrance est devenue un système confortable. Raison de plus pour évoquer ces grandes ombres, leur juste révolte, leur fraternité difficile, les efforts démesurés qu'elles firent pour se mettre en accord avec le meurtre – et pour dire ainsi où est notre fidélité.'
Albert Camus.

But the single issue that separated me from doctrine involved masturbation. I couldn’t stop. After all, I had firsthand evidence of its pleasures. Still, the church considered it sin. But sin or not, my practice continued for longer than I’d like to admit. I grew increasingly hostile at St. Joe’s. My fresh mouth worked overtime. When an acerbic remark of mine infuriated a priest, I was kicked out on my ear. This was nothing new. It was my senior year, and all I had to do was cool my heels a couple of weeks before going back and graduating.

We drove around the city in Jack’s big Cadillac and I thought everything was all right.
Secret assignations were too exciting to pass up. That set the pattern for much of my life.

I wasn’t crude or overbearing in my pursuits, but I was tenacious.
