"I've always considered my work one piece and I consider that my work won't be finished until I am dead and buried and I hope that's a long, long time."

My life, my life, now I speak of it as of something over, now as of a joke which still goes on, and it is neither, for at the same time it is over and it goes on, and is there any tense for that? Watch wound and buried by the watchmaker, before he died, whose ruined works will one day speak of God, to the worms.

— Samuel Beckett
