And then another night fall and another man come and
Watt go, Watt who is now come, for the coming is in the
shadow of the going and the going is in the shadow of the
coming, that is the annoying part about it. And yet there is
one who neither comes nor goes, I refer I need hardly say
to my late employer, but seems to abide in his place, for
the time being at any rate, like an oak, and elm, a beech or
an ash, to mention only the oak, the elm, the beech and the
ash, and we nest a little while in his branches.
Samuel Beckett,
Watt
