西西弗斯Sisyphus
希腊神话 · 科林斯国王Greek myth · King of Corinth · Sisyphus
因为触怒诸神，他被罚把一块巨石推上山顶。每次快到山顶，石头就会滚下来，他必须重新开始，永远如此。加缪说：必须想象西西弗斯是幸福的。For offending the gods he was condemned to push a boulder up a hill. Each time it nears the top it rolls back down, and he must begin again, forever. Camus said: one must imagine Sisyphus happy.
「必须想象西西弗斯是幸福的。」“One must imagine Sisyphus happy.”
