More From John F. Kennedy

They all think any minute i'm going to commit suicide. what a joke. the truth of course is the exact opposite: suicide is the only thing that keeps me alive. whenever everything else fails, all i have to do is consider suicide and in two seconds i'm as cheerful as a nitwit. but if i could not kill myself -- ah then, i would. i can do without nembutal or murder mysteries but not without suicide.
Suicide Thinking Opposites
The proposed constitution, therefore, even when tested by the rules laid down by its antagonists, is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal constitution; but a composition of both. in its foundation it is federal, not national; in the sources from which the ordinary powers of the government are drawn, it is partly federal, and partly national; in the operation of these powers, it is national, not federal; in the extent of them again, it is federal, not national; and finally, in the authoritative mode of introducing amendments, it is neither wholly federal, nor wholly national.
Government Foundation Ordinary
The difference between a non-suicide and an ex-suicide leaving the house for work, at eight o'clock on an ordinary morning: the non-suicide is a little traveling suck of care, sucking care with him from the past and being sucked toward care in the future. his breath is high in his chest. the ex-suicide opens his front door, sits down on the steps, and laughs. since he has the option of being dead, he has nothing to lose by being alive. it is good to be alive. he goes to work because he doesn't have to.
Suicide Morning Past
Far too many doctors-many of them excellent physicians-commit suicide each year; one recent study concluded that, until quite recently, the united states lost annually the equivalent of a medium-sized medical school class from suicide alone. most physician suicides are due to depression or manic-depressive illness, both of which are eminently treatable. physicians, unfortunately, not only suffer from a higher rate of mood disorders than the general population, they also have a greater access to very effective means of suicide.
Suicide Mean School
There was only one catch and that was catch-22. orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane he had to fly them. if he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to.
Crazy Would Be Want
There was only one catch and that was catch22, which specified that a concern for one's safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. orr was crazy and could be grounded. all he had to do was ask, and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane he had to fly them. if he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to.
Crazy Real Safety
