Keywords: philosophy; life; birth; suicide; faith; literary success;

Summary/Abstract: In the following, I will comment on some episodes that reveal consistencies or inconsistencies between the life and work of Emil Cioran, related to issues such as life, birth, suicide, philosophy, religious faith, resuming especially his testimonies, which I have also referred to on other occasions when I discussed philosophical issues of Cioran’s work (more precisely, I will analyse again certain passages from Cioran’s work that I believe to be important for discussing some of the aforementioned issues). Thus, the key question here is: did Cioran really live his philosophy, even partially?
