I set down on the bank.
I tried to think but couldn't,
So I jumped in and sank.”
― Langston Hughes

“Nothing in my life has ever made me want to commit suicide more than people's reaction to my trying to commit suicide.”
― Emilie Autumn, The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls

― Joseph Conrad, The Secret Sharer and other stories

“We need never be ashamed of our tears.”
― Charles Dickens, Great Expectations
