Albert The Myth of Sisyphus – Albert Camus

A foundational text in Absurdist philosophy, Camus uses the Greek myth of Sisyphus—condemned to eternally push a boulder uphill—as a metaphor for the human condition. He explores the concept of the absurd: the conflict between humanity's search for meaning and the universe's lack of inherent meaning. Camus famously concludes that one must embrace the meaninglessness of life and rebel against it by choosing to find happiness in the struggle itself: "One must imagine Sisyphus happy."
