Context Trivia / WaitingForGodot

1* ShrugOfGod:
2** Beckett said that if he knew who Godot was, he would've written it into the play.
3** When asked if the setting was actually Dante's [[Literature/TheDivineComedy Purgatory]], Beckett is said to have replied: "Quite alien to me, but you’re welcome."
4* WordOfGod:
5** Beckett as said on several occasions that Godot does not represent God, so much so that he even regrets naming the character in such a way to cause people to make the assumption. In actual fact "Godot" can be taken to mean pretty much anything that you would wait for to the point that you fail do anything else but wait.
