“Under certain conditions, it is improper to live any longer. Continued vegetation in cowardly dependence upon physicians and prescription, after the meaning of life, the right to life, has been lost, should entail the profound contempt of humanity.” Nietzsche
“Natural death is death under the most contemptible conditions. It is involuntary death, death at the wrong time, a coward’s death. We should desire a different kind of death—voluntary, conscious, not accidental or by surprise. when a man does away with himself, he does the noblest thing in the world. By doing it, he almost proves his right to live.” Nietzsche
“Natural death is destitute of rationality. It is really irrational death, for the pitiable substance of the shell determines how long the kernel shall endure. … [T]he enlightened regulation and control of death belong to the morality of the future.” Nietzsche
