More quotes by Samuel Beckett

"I always thought old age would be a writer’s best chance. Whenever I read the late work of Goethe or W. B. Yeats I had the impertinence to identify with it. Now, my memory’s gone, all the old fluency’s disappeared. I don’t write a single sentence without saying to myself, ‘It’s a lie!’ So I know I was right. It’s the best chance I’ve ever had."
"Try again. Fail again. Fail better."
"We are all born mad. Some remain so."
"The only sin is the sin of being born"
"No, I regret nothing, all I regret is having been born, dying is such a long tiresome business I always found."
