"We have witnessed the terrible increases in the incidence of alcoholism, the advent of drug dependency, the protests, marches, strikes and human alienation."
"From this process has emerged a parallel process of translating traditional working and living values into a new political and economic power - a power increasingly based upon the strength of money and those material things money can purchase."
"The reason why I take my life is because I want to go to my wife and boy. My usefulness in this world is at an end. I can not be satisfied in any business and can not be without their companionship."
"I do not regard it as wrong to take my life, because I simply change my place of residence and go where my wife and baby are."
"I go gladly to my wife and boy, and I leave this world at peace with every one in it and at peace with God."
