Divorced people are 2.4 times likely to commit suicide, and within that group, men are 9 times more likely to commit suicide as women (so for every 1 divorced female who commits suicide, there are 9 divorced men who do)

Quotes that we messed up:
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails." - writer H. Jackson Brown, Jr's mother is actually the likely person to have first said this. Who knows.
“I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them never happened.” - Probably not Mark Twain
