Read the following excerpt from Endgame by Samuel Beckett:
HAMM:
You feel normal?
CLOV (irritably)
I tell you I don't complain.
HAMM:
I feel a little strange.
(Pause.)
Clov!
CLOV:
Yes.
HAMM:
Have you not had enough?
CLOV:
Yes!
(Pause.)
Of what?
HAMM:
Of this... this... thing.
CLOV:
I always had.
(Pause.)
Not you?
HAMM (gloomily)
Then there's no reason for it to change.
CLOV:
It may end.
(Pause.)
