"In Hong Seung-hee's Suicide Diaries, I read about her thoughts on free death. (...) she thought that the word 'suicide' should be replaced with 'free death', a linguistic idea that made an impression on me."
In German there's a (somewhat archaic) expression for suicide that literally translates to 'free death'. I like it much more than the more modern 'self-murder.'
