~ Fields, W.C.
Here lies W.C. Fields. I would rather be living in Philadelphia.
~ Marx, Karl
Workers of all lands unite. The philosophers have only
interpreted the world in various ways; the point is to change it.
~ Benjamin Franklin
- “The body of
BENJAMIN FRANKLIN
Printer,
Like the cover of an old Book,
Its contents torn out,
And stript of its Lettering and Gilding
Lies here, Food for Worms;
Yet the work itself shall not be lost,
For it will (as he believed) appear once more
In a new and more beautiful edition
Corrected and amended, by
The Author.”
(Benjamin Franklin on himself, composed many years before his death)
Amedeo Modigliani
Struck down by Death at the moment of glory.
- H.L. Mencken—“If, after I depart this vale, you ever remember me and have thought to please my ghost, forgive some sinner, and wink your eye at some homely girl.”
