Suicide Murder These Days

More From Eugene Ionesco

Violence never really deals with the basic evil of the situation. violence may murder the murderer, but it doesn’t murder murder. violence may murder the liar, but it doesn’t murder lie; it doesn’t establish truth. violence may even murder the dishonest man, but it doesn’t murder dishonesty. violence may go to the point of murdering the hater, but it doesn’t murder hate. it may increase hate. it is always a descending spiral leading nowhere. this is the ultimate weakness of violence: it multiplies evil and violence in the universe. it doesn’t solve any problems.
Hate Liars Lying
I'm concerned about a better world. i'm concerned about justice; i'm concerned about brotherhood; i'm concerned about truth. and when one is concerned about that, he can never advocate violence. for through violence you may murder a murderer, but you can't murder murder. through violence you may murder a liar, but you can't establish truth. through violence you may murder a hater, but you can't murder hate through violence. darkness cannot put out darkness; only light can do that.
Motivational Hate Liars
I feel that non-violence is really the only way that we can follow because violence is just so self-defeating. a riot ends up creating many more problems for the negro community than it solved. we can through violence burn down a building, but you can't establish justice. you can murder a murderer, but you can't murder murder through violence. you can murder a hater, but you can't murder hate. and what we're trying to get rid of is hate, injustice, and all of these other things that continue the long night of man's inhumanity to man.
Hate Night Men
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
...nameless, unknown to me as you were, i couldn't forget your voice!' 'for how long?' 'o - ever so long. days and days.' 'days and days! only days and days? o, the heart of a man! days and days!' 'but, my dear madam, i had not known you more than a day or two. it was not a full-blown love - it was the merest bud - red, fresh, vivid, but small. it was a colossal passion in embryo. it never returned.
Passion Heart Men
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
Similar Quotes
One night she hid the pink cotton scarf from her raincoat in the pillowcase when the nurse came around to lock up her drawers and closets for the night. in the dark she had made a loop and tried to pull it tight around her throat. but always just as the air stopped coming and she felt the rushing grow louder in her ears, her hands would slacken and let go, and she would lie there panting for breath, cursing the dumb instinct in her body that fought to go on living
