Samuel Beckett

"I do not love anyone, and no one loves me."

"The future is just the past entering through another gate."

"I can't go on, I'll go on."

"The only way out is through."

"Nothing to be done."

"We are waiting for Godot."

"Habit is a great deadener."

"The tears of the world are a constant quantity."

"There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you."

"We need to suffer to know we're alive."

"Astride of a grave and a difficult birth, down in the hole, lingeringly."

"All that matters is to eat and excrete and procreate."

"I have nothing to say and I am saying it."

"The best you can hope for is some kind of ecstasy."

"Words are all we have and we must use them as best we can."

"Try again. Fail again. Fail better."

"In the meantime, let us not lose our heads."

"The mind swayed this way and that by its perceptions."

"Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better."

"I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them."

"Silence is golden, but talking fills the void."

"The more one eats, the more one wears; the more one wears, the better one eats."

"One cannot always be up-beat, you know."

"There is nothing more terrible than a bad description."

"The fact is, there are two fools in every transaction."

"Mundanity is what defeats life."

"I was never really alive."

"What does it mean to be alive if one is not living?"

"The essential doesn't change."

"We breathe, we change, we end."
