    According to Camus “the struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man’s heart.” So he thinks Sissy was pretty happy. I want to know if you asked Monty Hall to ask Sisyphus, would he be able to tell him the truth about his emotional state?

      I think he would be happy because compared to just rolling a rock around in some nondescript afterlife he’s actually interacting with a world full of interesting quandaries which can occupy his mind and distract him from the pains of rolling a boulder around. He can actively make a small difference in the world (maybe) with the ship of theseus and Shrodinger’s cat, and with Shrodinger’s cat he is for sure making something change.
