I have never made a serious attempt to put an end to my life; also not an unpredictable. I only thought of it often, in every age.
In Max Frisch’s book "Montauk," the author reflects on his life and thoughts about death. He acknowledges that while he has often contemplated the idea of ending his life, he has never made a genuine effort to do so. This admission emphasizes the complexity of his feelings, suggesting that the thoughts are recurring yet lacking any serious intention.
The quote reveals a deep introspection and a recognition of the human experience with mortality. Frisch's acknowledgment of these thoughts across different stages of life indicates a continual engagement with existential questions, revealing a tension between life and the contemplation of its cessation.
