"He was for personal expression, personal liberty and personality."
This is completely bogus.
HST never knew, or exercised, and kind of responsibility or restraint in his life. As one FReeper around here said, his final act of self-centeredness, in leaving his messy corpse for his wife and family to find and clean-up, says it all. If you had said "He was for personal expression as a libertine and a defective personality..." you would have been right on the money.
Such as it is, any suicide is tragic for the survivors and I hope things are better for him wherever he is.
Suicide is the ultimate act of selfishness.
have you read any of his work?
