Beckett Bingo

Why Beckett? Why Bingo? Because such is life. Because THE BASTARD! HE DOESN’T EXIST! Because habit is a great deadener. Because if I had the use of my body, I would throw it out the window. Because in the language of extinction, precision is next to godliness. Because we wait — we are bored. Because there is nothing to be done. Because we have time to grow old. Because you can play and lose and have done with losing.

Let’s go. Yes, let’s go. (They do not move.)

Also he tweets every day about a broad range of topics, from the ontological meaning of dog poop bags to the erotic potential of red velvet cake.
