Famous quotes containing the words king and/or sisyphus:
“I don’t think Dr. King helped racial harmony, I think he helped racial justice. What I profess to do is help the oppressed and if I cause a load of discomfort in the white community and the black community, that in my opinion means I’m being effective, because I’m not trying to make them comfortable. The job of an activist is to make people tense and cause social change.”
—Al, Reverend Sharpton (b. 1954)
“The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man’s heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
