“So he was deserted. The whole world was clamouring: Kill yourself, kill yourself, for our sakes. But why should he kill himself for their sakes? Food was pleasant; the sun hot; and this killing oneself, how does one set about it, with a table knife, uglily, with floods of blood, - by sucking a gaspipe?

― Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway

“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.”
