    Résumé
    Razors pain you,
    Rivers are damp,
    Acids stain you,
    And drugs cause cramp.

    Nooses give,
    Gas smells awful.
    You might as well live.”
    Dorothy Parker, Enough Rope

And they are inclined to think, about a suicide, that no fight was involved, that somebody simply gave up. This is quite wrong.”
    Sally Brampton, Shoot the Damn Dog: A Memoir of Depression
