"You should not allow yourselves to be overwhelmed in any way by the dificulties and sorrows, doubts and disappointments. You must have faith. Have confidence in yourself and others to understand well the nature of God's Love. To secure that love is the sacred, goal of human life."

I do like Camus - I've read most of his books - but I'd have to go with Sartre - another French existentialist.

Your big three rock. Whoo - Go Fredrich...in case you want to know my prejudicial leaning.
However, prejudice aside, I am my favorite philosopher because I have the opportunity and responsibility to define my life as well as each day and each counter.
That said...I have a fairly good idea who the philosopher is who most defines you.
