So what's the good of dying intentionally, of sacrificing yourself to the idea you want people to have of you? Once you are dead, they will take advantage of it to attribute idiotic or vulgar motives to your action. Martyrs, cher ami, must choose between being forgotten, mocked, or made use of. As for being understood--never!

Suicide may also be regarded as an experiment - a question which man puts to Nature, trying to force her to answer.

It is a clumsy experiment to make; for it involves the destruction of the very consciousness which puts the question and awaits the answer.
