More quotes by Samuel Beckett

Samuel Beckett
The only sin is the sin of being born.
Samuel Beckett
Mysterious affair, electricity.
Samuel Beckett
That desert of loneliness and recrimination that men call love.
Samuel Beckett
Birth was the death of him.
Samuel Beckett

Samuel Beckett
I tried to groan, Help! Help! But the tone that came out was that of polite conversation.
Samuel Beckett
The Tuesday scowls, the Wednesday growls, the Thursday curses, the Friday howls, the Saturday snores, the Sunday yawns, the Monday morns, the Monday morns. The whacks, the moans, the cracks, the groans, the welts, the squeaks, the belts, the shrieks, the pricks, the prayers, the kicks, the tears, the skelps, and the yelps.
Samuel Beckett

Samuel Beckett
God is a witness that cannot be sworn.
Samuel Beckett

Samuel Beckett
It's a lot to ask of one creature, it's a lot to ask, that he should first behave as if he were not, then as if he were, before being admitted to that peace where he neither is, nor is not, and where the language dies that permits of such expressions.
Samuel Beckett
The only thing you must never speak of is your happiness.
Samuel Beckett
If by Godot I had meant God I would have said God, and not Godot.
Samuel Beckett
Sloth is all passions the most powerful.
Samuel Beckett
Decidedly it will never have been given to me to finish anything, except perhaps breathing. One must not be greedy.
Samuel Beckett
Unfathomable mind, now beacon, now sea.
Samuel Beckett
Enough of acting the infant who has been told so often how he was found under a cabbage that in the end he remembers the exact spot in the garden and the kind of life he led there before joining the family circle.
Samuel Beckett
in reality we are one and all from the unthinkable first to the no less unthinkable last glued together in a vast imbrication of flesh without breach or fissure
Samuel Beckett
