Albert Camus (1913–1960, age 46)

A French philosopher and novelist, Camus wrestled with the absurdity of existence, the tension between humanity’s search for meaning and the indifferent, silent universe. In my writing, Camus aligns closely with the idea of embracing the wild horse—acknowledging life’s meaninglessness yet choosing to live fully and authentically in spite of it. His notion of rebellion against despair resonates with my focus on thriving in the face of uncertainty, much like Nietzsche’s call to create meaning in a nihilistic world.
