Perhaps there will be an afterlife, "but no one will know where it's being held."20
Boris confronts Sonia in "Love and Death" with his anxiety about the meaning of life and the existence of God:
Boris: What if there is no God? ... What if we're just a bunch of absurd people who are running around with no rhyme or reason?
Sonia: But if there is no God, then life has no meaning. Why go on living? Why not just commit suicide?
Boris: Well, let's not get hysterical! I could be wrong. I'd hate to blow my brains out and then read in the papers they found something.
