Rory O’ Connor
“Suicide is not selfish
Characterising suicide as selfish simply adds to the stigma around it. And when stigma increases, help-seeking declines, ignorance flourishes and deaths soar.”
Rory O’ Connor, When It Is Darkest: Why People Die by Suicide and What We Can Do to Prevent It

Cormac McCarthy
“She asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and she said dead.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Passenger

Erin Stewart
“When you get to a place where dying seems like the easy way out, that changes you.”
Erin Stewart

Mieko Kawakami
“At first, suicide was just a word, a vague idea separate from reality. It pointed at a way that other people chose to die, people I didn't even know. But once the word became my own, it took on the strangest shape. I could feel it growing deep inside of me. Suicide wasn't something that happened to strangers. I could make it happen, if I wanted to.”
Mieko Kawakami, Heaven

Graeme Macrae Burnet
“The default in life is to go on. Without intervention, life continues, as if it is an entity that exists independently of its custodian. To terminate a life requires an effort of will.”
Graeme Macrae Burnet, Case Study
