1. Why did Beckett choose Estragon to struggle with his boot? Is there some hidden significance for it?
2. Why do Vladimir & Estragon sometimes repeat each other like "Hurts! He wants to know if it hurts!" & why did he pick these lines to have repeated?
3.Why does Vladimir refuse to hear about Estragon's dream?
4. When Estragon says "This one is enough for you?" as he gestures to the universe, Is this supposed to seem as if Vladimir refuses to think of anything else existing other than the only things he sees?
5. Estragon asks Vladimir to tell him a certain story and when Estragon starts he tells him to stop. Could this perhaps be some sort of story of the life Vladimir had before they became who they were now?
6. Why is it that Estragon and Vladimir cannot stay angry at each other or be too far from the other?
7. When they start talking about hanging themselves, why does it seem that the task of waiting for Godot to arrive seem so powerful?
8. Why is waiting for Godot so important to Vladimir?
9. Estragon goes along with Vladimir on almost everything. Why can't Estragon grasp why Vladimir is waiting in the first place?
10. When Estragon and Vladimir try to decide who would hang themselves first, it seems clear that they don't want to be alone. Why would they consider do something that shows how alone they are if they are afraid of being alone?
11. Why is the bible mentioned in the play?
12. What do they think will happen when Godot arrives if he ever did?
13. Why does Beckett have the lines regarding waiting for Godot repeated between the two characters several times?
