Emil M. Cioran
“It is not worth the bother of killing yourself, since you always kill yourself too late.”
Emil Cioran, The Trouble With Being Born

“Killing oneself is, anyway, a misnomer. We don't kill ourselves. We are simply defeated by the long, hard struggle to stay alive. When somebody dies after a long illness, people are apt to say, with a note of approval, "He fought so hard." 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

Jeannette Walls
“When people kill themselves, they think they're ending the pain, but all they're doing is passing it on to those they leave behind.”
Jeannette Walls

Roger Zelazny
“I know, too, that death is the only god who comes when you call.”
Roger Zelazny, Frost & Fire

Friedrich Nietzsche
“The thought of suicide is a great consolation: by means of it one gets through many a dark night.”
Nietzsche
