When even despair ceases to serve any creative purpose, then surely we are justified in suicide.

The true index of a man's character is the health of his wife.

We may assume that we keep people waiting symbolically because we do not wish to see them and that our anxiety is due not to being late, but to having to see them at all.

There are many who dare not kill themselves for fear of what the neighbours will say.

There is no hate without fear. Hate is crystallized fear, fear's dividend, fear objectivized. We hate what we fear and so where hate is, fear is lurking. Thus we hate what threatens our person, our liberty, our privacy, our income, our popularity, our vanity and our dreams and plans for ourselves. If we can isolate this element in what we hate we may be able to cease from hating... Hate is the consequence of fear; we fear something before we hate; a child who fears noises becomes the man who hates them.

Melancholy and remorse forms the deep leaden keel which enables us to sail into the wind of reality.

There is no suicide for which all society is not responsible.
