Without Lifting A Finger

From Beckett's "Assumption": The process was absurd, extravagantly absurd, like boiling an egg over a bonfire.

This whispering down, like all explosive feats of the kind, was as the apogee of a Vimy Light's parabola, commanding undeserved attention because of its sudden brilliance. *** [From The Grove Companion to Samuel Beckett by C.J. Ackerly and S. E. Gontarski]
