(He throws up his hand.) No, don’t protest, we are bored to death, there’s no denying it. Good. A diversion comes along and what do we do? We let it go to waste. Come, let’s get to work! (He advances towards the heap, stops in his stride.) In an instant all will vanish and we’ll be alone more, in the midst of nothingness!  (Samuel Beckett Quotes) What are we doing here, that is the question. And we are blessed in this, that we happen to know the answer. Yes, in the immense confusion one thing alone is clear. We are waiting for Godot to come  (Samuel Beckett Quotes) James Joyce: His writing is not about something. It is the thing itself  (Samuel Beckett Quotes) My work is a matter of fundamental sounds (no joke intended) made as fully as possible, and I accept responsibility for nothing else.

Let us make the most of it, before it is too late!
