Who said “The obsession with suicide is characteristic of the man who can neither live nor die,…”?

“No one ever lacks a good reason for suicide.”

“Sometimes I wonder if suicides aren't in fact sad guardians of the meaning of life.”

“There are many who dare not kill themselves for fear of what the neighbors will say.”

“Here take back the stuff that I am, nature, knead it back into the dough of being, make of me a bush, a cloud, whatever you will, even a man, only no longer make me.”

“If I commit suicide, it will not be to destroy myself but to put myself back together again. Suicide will be for me only one means of violently reconquering myself, of brutally invading my being, of anticipating the unpredictable approaches of God. By suicide, I reintroduce my design in nature, I shall for the first time give things the shape of my will.”

“Every thought derives from a thwarted sensation.”

“There is no means of proving it is preferable to be than not to be.”

“Consciousness is much more than the thorn, it is the dagger in the flesh.”

“The fact that life has no meaning is a reason to live --moreover, the only one.”

“Progress is the injustice each generation commits with regard to its predecessors.”

“It is not worth the bother of killing yourself, since you always kill yourself too late.”
