Suicide is the punctuation mark at the end of many artistic careers

.The insane, on occasion, are not without their charms

Almost every war ends, properly, with its veterans feeling deceived and pointless and gullible, with their being persuaded that all participants were equally vile.

Artists use frauds to make human beings seem more wonderful than they really are. Dancers show us human beings who move much more gracefully than human beings really move. Films and books and plays show us people talking much more entertainingly than people.

Society is more concerned with material possessions than it is with the true love and compassion of another human being.

So it goes.
