“There is the constant fear of suicide bombers, which is prevalent on every street. And you see a hopelessness because they are being occupied and feel they will never be removed from the yoke of Israeli occupation,”
Paul Kennedy
“He was so depressed, he tried to commit suicide by inhaling next to an Armenian.”
Woody Allen
“Trust yourself. Think for yourself. Act for yourself. Speak for yourself. Be yourself. Imitation is suicide.”
Marva Collins
“He would say, 'How funny it will all seem, all you've gone through, when I'm not here anymore, when you no longer feel my arms around your shoulders, nor my heart beneath you, nor this mouth on your eyes, because I will have to go away someday, far away...' And in that instant I could feel myself with him gone, dizzy with fear, sinking down into the most horrible blackness: into death.”
Arthur Rimbaud
“However great a man's fear of life, suicide remains the courageous act, the clear-headed act of a mathematician. The suicide has judged by the laws of chance -- so many odds against one that to live will be more miserable than to die. His sense of mathematics is greater than his sense of survival. But think how a sense of survival must clamor to be heard at the last moment, what excuses it must present of a totally unscientific nature.”
Graham Greene
“There's lots of depression. Suicide is a very last resort for people . . . that's a real fear.”
Brian Edwards
“Suicide in Ireland is a problem that nobody wants to talk about. Where you've got stigma, you get fear and secrecy - it becomes a vacuum,”
Kevin Malone
