Waiting for Godot is a play by Samuel Beckett. The play depicts the meaninglessness of life–with its repetitive plot, where nothing much happens. Here are a few quotes from Waiting for Godot.
“Let’s go. Yes, let’s go. (They do not move).”
“Nothing to be done.”
We wait. We are bored. (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… In an instant all will vanish and we’ll be alone once more, in the midst of nothingness!”
