Samuel Beckett Quotes
I Realized That Joyce Had Gone As Far As One Could In The Direction Of Knowing More, In Control Of One's Material. He Was Always Adding To It; You Only Have To Look At His Proofs To See That. I Realised That My Own Way Was Impoverishment, In Lack Of Knowledge And In Taking Away, Subtracting Rather Than Adding. When I First Met Joyce, I Didn't Intend To Be A Writer. That Only Came Later When I Found Out That I Was No Good At All At Teaching. When I Found I Simply Couldn't Teach. But I Do Remember Speaking About Joyce's Heroic Achievement. I Had A Great Admiration For Him. That's What It Was: Epic, Heroic, What He Achieved. I Realized That I Couldn't Go Down That Same Road.
