A sausage burst its casing with an appetizing sizzle and leaped, it seemed of its own accord, into suicidal embers. Brian rescued it with a stick and looked up. Don had come back with the wood. "It's fall," said Brian. "The wind's full of it to-night. Last night I was cold." "So was I," said Don. Brian thought he looked a little out-of-sorts.
Outskirts of London were being traversed; but neither driving sheets of rain against which human vision failed, nor the chance of encountering belated traffic, worked any slackening of the pace. Only when a corner had to be negotiated did the car slow down, and then never to the point of sanity; and the turn once rounded, its flight would again become headlong, lunatic, suicidal.
The life of the university is at stake!" It was evident that the finality in the tones and in the faces of his colleagues had daunted him; but with a tremendous effort he put down the weakness of age and turned fiercely upon Whitney to shame him from indorsing Scarborough's suicidal policy. But Whitney, with intent of brutality, took out his watch.
It was a superb exhibition of nerve in the face of almost certain defeat and showed a spirit that would not be downed, and I have often thought of this game in different far-off parts of the world. While Yale finally won 20-10 still Billy showed the same spirit that Farragut showed when told that the river was filled with torpedoes and that it would be suicidal to proceed.
I believe my brother meditates some desperate onslaught; for he is swearing to exterminate the whole tribe if they continue their depredations much longer." "I think," replied John Ferguson, "that he is suicidal to his own interests by perpetuating his quarrel with the blacks.

If they are running on low-lying country and are driven off when a flood comes, they will probably walk back into the flood-water and get drowned as soon as their owner turns his back. But, as a rule, cattle are not suicidal. They sort themselves into mobs, they pick out the best bits of country, they find their way to the water, they breed habitually; but it always ends in the same way.
"I never thought, I never inquired " began Alwyn hurriedly. "No!" and Heliobas smiled rather sadly, "Few men do think or inquire very far on sacred subjects! Listen, for what I have to say to you will but strengthen you in your faith, and you will need more than all the strength of the Four Evangelists to bear you stiffly up against the suicidal Negation of this present disastrous epoch.
This is particularly true of those who have demonstrated impulsive suicidal explosions. Not only on the basis of the psychological theory of the stupor process, but from the observed phenomena of recovery, we gather that mental stimulation is of first importance if an amelioration of the condition is to be attempted.
In blindness which was not only fatal but suicidal also, "they persuaded themselves that the union would make Ireland rich, and that England's interest was to keep her poor;" as if it had been possible for one portion of the kingdom to increase in prosperity without every other portion benefiting also by the improvement.
