Ramón Sampedro:
Judges, political and religious authorities. What does dignity mean to you? Whatever the answer of your conscience, know that for me, this is not a worthy life. I would have liked to at least die with dignity. Today, tired of the institutional laziness, I see myself forced to do it in hiding, like a criminal. You should know that the processes conducting to my death has been carefully divided in small actions that do not constitute a crime by themselves and have been executed by several friendly hands. If even then, the state insists in punishing my helpers, I would suggest that you cut their hands, because that is all that they contributed. The head, I mean the conscience, was provided by me. As you can see, to my side I have a glass of water that contains a dose of potassium cyanide, when I drink it I will cease to exist, relinquishing my most precious property: my body. I believe that living is a right not an obligation, as it has been in my case, forced to accept this sad situation during 28 years, 4 months and some days. After all this time, I make a balance of the road traveled and I can't account for the happiness, only the time that passed against my will, during most of my life. Time will be my ally from now on. Only time and the evolution of consciences will decide one day if my request was reasonable or not.
