"We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark -- the place where the wave finally broke and rolled back."- Dr. Hunter S. Thompson

I don't know what else to say.

I can't find in the news a reason for why he shot himself... Fitting, sure, but had he left a note or something I'd be interested in the text of it.
