  • "If by Godot I had meant God I would have said God, and not Godot." S. Beckett

  • @tobs001 .....and did you think of that all by yourself Tobby...?

    Sure it must be passing marvellous to have a brain like yours.

    I'll pass your gem on to all of the metropolitan critics so that they can revise their opinions as I'm sure they all thought it was just a daft tale of four hobos.........thanks again you genius

see all

  • In Phoenix Wright, there's a character named Godot who states he "never was there when my poor Mia has been murdered".

  • @SomethingReal1119 Samual Beckett said expicitly that Godot isn't God. He isn't saying that you can't interpret it or try to figure it out just that your interpretation is wrong.

  • @SomethingReal1119

    I concur completely with your interpretation that Godot is God. The Hobos who are waiting for Him with expectations of how Godot will change their lives parallels the 12 Step program when an alcoholic "came to believe a power greater then myself, could restore me to sanity".

  • I know Beckett hated when ppl tried 2 interpret this work, but isn't that why playwrights CREATE these works?? So they can be internalized -- what is the point of watching them if you cannot analyze them also? There is CLEARLY a purpose and identity to this Godot character, and Beckett didn't like for anyone to try to figure it out? In my mind, Godot represents God. For me, it's a perfect interpretation, and since SB has never said WHO he is, I am happy w/ my personal interpretation. It fits

  • they can plan a suicide but they can't think of dropping Godot........... Godot doesn't mind their hanging themselves but he sure minds their stop waiting for him....... it's unsupportable!!!!!!!!!

  • @tkhushrenada the burden of Humanity can be a stale tale. Still i enjoy hearing it as this.

  • @michaeijd i am not always a fan of dramatic interpretation. When the words say enough.

  • @DrClay999 we are all that way, are we not? at the worse of it any way.

  • how alone we are, forget politeness in the face of wonder without joy. How is your brother. ?
