All healthy men have thought of their own suicide

Summary

This quote, often attributed to Albert Camus, suggests that contemplating suicide is a natural occurrence in the minds of mentally sound individuals. It implies that even those who appear to be healthy and content have likely contemplated their own mortality at some point. This statement can serve as a reminder that thoughts and struggles related to life's challenges and existential questions are not exclusive to those who are facing mental health issues, but are universal experiences that many people encounter.

To renounce the alcoholic world is not to abandon it, but to act upon principles I have come to love and cherish, and to restore in others - who still suffer - the serenity I have come to know. When I am truly committed to this purpose, it matters little what clothes I wear or how I make a living. My task is to carry the message, and to lead by example, not design.
