Estragon: Wouldn't it be better for both of us if we weren't together? {He passes the scene from the beginning, sits on the bump.} We're not the passengers of the same road. Vladimir: {without angry} is not clear. Estragon: True, nothing is clear. {Vladimir passes the stage to the beginning, sits next to Estragon.} Vladimir: We can always leave; If you believe it will be better for us. Estragon: It's not worth it anymore. {silence} Vladimir: Right, it's not worth it anymore. {silence} Estragon: Well, should we go? Vladimir: Yes, let's go. {They can't move.}

In this excerpt from "Waiting for Godot" by Samuel Beckett, Estragon expresses a sense of dissatisfaction with their companionship, suggesting that it may be better for them to part ways. He reflects on the uncertainty of their situation, indicating a lack of clarity in their lives. Vladimir's calm response shows that he is not angry, yet they both acknowledge the ambiguity surrounding their relationship and circumstances.

As they discuss leaving, Estragon's resignation is evident when he declares that it is no longer worth it to stay together. Despite their desire to move on, they find themselves unable to actually leave, highlighting their paralysis and the existential themes of the play. This conversation encapsulates the overall essence of waiting and the struggle to make decisions in a seemingly purposeless existence.
