This man is different. He can fix anything, do anything. He doesn't work with knowledge, with science-the classified accumulation of facts. He knows nothing. It's not in his head, a form of learning. He works by intuition-his power is in his hands, not his head. Jack-of-all-trades. His hands! Like a painter, an artist. In his hands-and he cuts across our lives like a knife-blade.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
