  • Suicide may also be regarded as an experiment - a question which man puts to Nature, trying to force her to answer.

It is a clumsy experiment to make; for it involves the destruction of the very consciousness which puts the question and awaits the answer.

  • The world says: "You have needs - satisfy them. You have as much right as the rich and the mighty. Don't hesitate to satisfy your needs; indeed, expand your needs and demand more."

Praise to them, how they loved it, when they could.

  • Nothing is secure. That is my message. Nothing can be secure, because a secure life will be worse than death. Nothing is certain. Life is full of uncertainties, full of surprises - that is its beauty! You can never come to a moment when you can say, "Now I am certain." When you say you are certain, you simply declare your death, you have committed suicide.
