Spectacular "Samurai" suicide in Berlin avoided - Interview (2) - (sequel to part 1)
Q: “Welchen Wert hat die Wuerde eines Menschen?” – How much is the human dignity? You asked and tried to appeal to the people for more respectfulness of others?
A: That’s correct! In my opinion the interests of humanity and human dignity are more and more eclipsed by commercial insensibility, sexual and economical ruthlessness, and moreover by an increasing iciness in the interpersonal area. Many people can’t cope with this, and they fall through the cracks. They die, after they have lost all their power and are – on top of everything – ashamed of this. So this problem damages and destroys human life’s – surely far more than you and me dare to believe. An open discussion about this problem should have to take place in society, but everybody remains silent, prefers to talk about new mobile phones, his last journey or the money of his neighbour instead.
