Prof. Henry Barnes:
Why not suicide?
Peggy Taylor:
Because it wouldn't change anything.
Prof. Henry Barnes:
The gentleman would be dead! I consider that a drastic change.
Peggy Taylor:
What makes Mr. Hypothetical think he's living now?
Prof. Henry Barnes:
I just said he was living!
Peggy Taylor:
I mean really living. If he's just doing nothing but sitting around moping, thinking up reasons why he should kill himself, he's not alive, he's dead already. Just as dead as a dodo. Now, if he's dead, suicide's not going to change anything. It's just going to give him more of the same thing he's got. Suicide only puts an end to living and vice versa. Mm-mm, the only way that he can change that kind of deadly existence is to start living with a capital "L" and that's just what Mr. Hypothetical ought to do.
