It is clear to the audience that No Exit and Waiting For Godot serve as existentialist warnings. Sartre and Beckett, two men full of knowledge, suggest that many people live existentialist life styles; however, the two artists do not recommend this life style.

It wasn't the first English dictionary[->0] (more than 20 had appeared over the preceding two centuries), but in many ways it was the most remarkable. Unsuccessful as a schoolmaster in his hometown of Lichfield, Staffordshire (the few students he had were put off by his "oddities of manner and uncouth gesticulations"--most likely the effects of Tourette syndrome), Johnson moved to London in 1737 to make

1. I believe what makes this play different from conventional plays is the setting and basic plot. The entire setting of the play was shown in the same location, you do not see this in the average play.
