“Preventive war is like committing suicide out of fear of death.”

“If you go to your death rather than do everything you might to prevent what is happening, you are merely committing suicide and trying to make yourself feel better about it. That is the act of a coward. It is beneath contempt.”

“Spirituality is committing suicide. Consciousness is attempting to will itself out of existence.”

“quitting without trying is like committing a suicide without thinking”

“The really unforgivable acts are committed by calm men in beautiful green silk rooms, who deal death wholesale, by the shipload, without lust, or anger, or desire, or any redeeming emotion to excuse them but cold fear of some pretended future. But the crimes they hope to prevent in that future are imaginary. The ones they commit in the present — they are real.”

“People always think that a suicide is commited for one reason. But it is perfectly possible to commit a suicide for two reasons.”
