Discussion What is your favorite quote that has to do with suicide or death?

[Life_is_an_STD]

I've heard different variations of this pessimistic though realistic quote which is also my username. "Life is a sexually transmitted disease that's fatal in every case"

 

[diopdawe]

Mother can't mourn me
Father won't win my fights
I'm dressed in my mortuary best
I'm ready for my ride
The blood of the covenant is thicker
Than the water of the womb
They're waiting with open arms
For me to join them soon...
(Marilyn Manson)

I found this one that I like.

I was sayin' let me out of here before I was even born
— Richard Hell, Blank Generation​

And this one.

The red washing
down the bathtub
can't change the color of the sea
at all.
— Derrick C. Brown​

Norm's bit on suicide was great:

When people commit suicide, no one ever understands. You know what I mean? People commit suicide and people go "I don't understand why." and I go, "You don't?"

What, do you live in a cotton-candy house or something? What the fuck? You don't know about life? How it only disappoints and gets worse and worse until it ends in a catastrophe?

The fuck?

There's two reasons guys will hang themselves from the neck: One: is, like we said, to escape this worthless masquerade of a life we pretend we have. And the second reason we hang ourselves is to whack off.

amazing. Love when I get a good chuckle from ssn.
Stand up bit I heard:

Someone told me once that she was worried bc suicide runs in her family, so I asked 'how many people in your family committed suicide?"
Her: "None, it was all just attempts"
Me: "you shouldn't be worried bc suicide runs in your family, you should be worried bc failure runs in your family."

I love dark humor, and am also so scared of fucking up ctb so hits home for me

Tired with all these, from these would I be gone,
Save that to die, I leave my love alone.

"God I ask you ....is non resistance a sin?"

"All he saw in me was the living corpse of a would be suicide."


"Unhappiness. There are all kinds of unhappy people in the world. I suppose it would be no exaggeration to say that the world is composed entirely of unhappy people. But those people can fight their unhappiness with society fairly and squarly, and society for its part easily understands and sympathizes with such struggles. My unhappiness stemmed entirely from my own vices, and I had no way of fighting anybody."

"I simply don't understand. I have not the remotest clue what the nature or extent of my neighbor's woes can be. Practical troubles, griefs that can be assuaged if only there is enough to eat— these may be the most intense of all burning hells, horrible enough to blast to smithereens my ten misfortunes, but that is precisely what I don't understand: if my neighbors manage to survive without killing themselves, without going mad, maintaining an interest in political parties, not yielding to despair, resolutely pursuing the fight for existence, can their griefs really be genuine? Am I wrong in thinking that these people have become such complete egoists and are so convinced of the normality of their way of life that they have never once doubted themselves?"

All of these are from the book no longer human

Ironically, "it all seems very mundane, but one day, you'll miss it, when you see the photos."
Not sure where this quote came from, just saw a cute little cartoon drawing with those lines. It reminded me of a video I saw titled "the day after your death."

I also just wanted to take the chance to recommend a song! Its called Main Actor by Minami, I just thought her singing was really touching in its rawness, lyrics too though I wouldn't say they're specifically pointing towards the idea of death/suicide

Dogs, do you want to live forever? Titel of a movie about Stalingrad, drawn from Frederick the Great's words to motivate his soldiers in a battle: "You cursed rascals, do you want to live forever?"
