They do not inspire me with disgust, but with an immense pity. Among all the mysteries of human life there is one which I have penetrated; our great torment in this existence comes from the fact that we are eternally alone -- all our efforts and all our actions are directed toward escaping this solitude.
On January 2, 1892, de Maupassant attempted suicide by cutting his throat. He was committed to the celebrated private asylum of Dr. Esprit Blanche at Passy, in Paris, where he died on July 6, 1893, at the age of 43.

To a friend
To a friend
I will come one evening, rounding the bend that takes me;
I will come to find you alone with your old dream.
Dusk will drag its light clouds heavily
Passing by your lonely window
You will welcome me in your silent room and there will be
books all around, abandoned in deep silence.
We will sit next to each other. We will talk about the things that go away
of those who have died before we lose them,
from the bitterness of meaningless life, of boredom,
of not expecting anything to be done,
of disappearing ... And little by little in the dark stillness,
our words and our last thoughts will also be quenched.
But the night will come and stop at the window sill;
will mix breezes and aromas with starlight,
with the great call that Nature exhales,
and with your chest which silence will not protect.
April 30, 1930

May my death be fruitful. And force the meditation. So that those who can, learn the lesson.
From the suicide letter of Miguel Ángel Quevedo. Cuban Editor, Shot himself while living in exile in Venezuela.
We were all guilty. Everyone. By action or omission. Old and young. Rich and poor. Black and white. Honored and thieves. Virtuous and sinners. Of course, we still had to learn the incredible and bitter lesson: that the most "virtuous" and the most "honored" were the poor.
I die disgusted. Alone. Outlaw. Exiled. And betrayed and abandoned by friends to whom I generously gave my moral and financial support in very difficult days. [...] All dehumanized and cold abandoned me in "the fall".
May my death be fruitful. And force the meditation. So that those who can, learn the lesson. [...]And for the people to reconsider and repudiate those spokesmen of hatred, whose fruits we have seen could not be more bitter.
We were a people blinded by hate. And we were all victims of that blindness. Our sins weighed more than our virtues. We forgot Nuñez de Arce when he said:
"When people forget their virtues, it's a tyrant in its own vices."

Bang bang!
"depressed . . . without phone . . . money for rent . . . money for child support . . . money for debts . . . money!!! . . . I am haunted by the vivid memories of killings & corpses & anger & pain . . . of starving or wounded children, of trigger-happy madmen, often police, of killer executioners . . ." - Kevin Carter

Ai-je bien pu vivre deux mois et demi sans toi?
I'll kill myself tomorrow, unable to stand existence without the woman who had been my sole joy, the only happiness in my life. For the last two and a half months I have struggled; today I am at the edge. I don't have much hope to see her again, but who knows? At least I am plunging into the void where one no longer suffers. I wish to be buried (this is my formal wish) in the tomb that I have had built in the Ixelles cemetery for my dear Marguerite, the vault which I own. My body should be placed in the central resting place just above her. And never, for any reason, must I be placed in the highest chamber. I ask that her portrait and a lock of her hair, which I will have on me when I die, be placed in my coffin, which should be as similar as possible to that of my dearest Marguerite's. On the tombstone, below my dearest Marguerite's inscription, in the same characters and the same style of writing, write these words: "Georges, 29th of April, 1837 - 30th of September, 1891: Ai-je bien pu vivre deux mois et demi sans toi?"
General Georges Boulanger, who, on the verge of becoming dictator of France, relinquished his power to care for his dying lover, Marguerite. Two months after her death, he shot himself at her grave site.
