“So this is hell. I’d never have believed it. You remember all we were told about the torture-chambers, the fire and brimstone, the burning marl. Old wives’ tales! There’s no need for red-hot pokers. Hell is other people”
–Jean-Paul Sartre

Read this play just yesterday. Have to discuss a quote from it in relation to a couple of Beckett plays. It really is a masterpiece. I think it has great relevance to the Endgame quote:
“What’s he doing?”
“He’s crying.”
“Then he’s alive.”
