The concept of absurdity is something I'm attracted to.

Basically, at the very bottom of life, which seduces us all, there is only absurdity, and more absurdity. And maybe that's what gives us our joy for living, because the only thing that can defeat absurdity is lucidity.

Just because a subject is serious doesn't mean it doesn't have plenty of absurdities.

I would think a sense of the absurd is more important for a political cartoonist, because that could define things like a sense of hypocrisy or a sense of the things one has to be skeptical about.

Absurdity, n.: A statement or belief manifestly inconsistent with one's own opinion.

The deeper the experience of an absence of meaning - in other words, of absurdity - the more energetically meaning is sought.

Absurdity is what I like most in life, and there's humor in struggling in ignorance. If you saw a man repeatedly running into a wall until he was a bloody pulp, after a while it would make you laugh because it becomes absurd.

There is nothing so absurd that some philosopher has not already said it.

The absurd depends as much on man as on the world. For the moment, it is all that links them together.
