Is everybody happy? I want everybody to be happy. I know I’m happy.
~~ Ethel Barrymore, actress, d. June 18, 1959
Die? I should say not, dear fellow. No Barrymore would allow such a conventional thing to happen to him.
~~ John Barrymore, actor, d. May 29, 1942
Friends applaud, the comedy is finished.
~~ Ludwig van Beethoven, composer, d. March 26, 1827
I should never have switched from Scotch to Martinis.
~~ Humphrey Bogart, actor, d. January 14, 1957
Go on, get out – last words are for fools who haven’t said enough.
To his housekeeper, who urged him to tell her his last words so she could write them down for posterity.
~~ Karl Marx, revolutionary, d. 1883
Ever thought about the last words you will ever say on this earth will be? I mean, it sounds morbid to think about that, truly, it is an interesting thing to consider. In your one last dying breath, what would you say to sum up all of your wisdom, all of your life experiences, all of your love, or all of your patriotism in a single short phrase. I think about this now, because (in a sense) my final words with you all (via the internet, at least) are fast approaching. And I know like the past 95 days or so days , the post will end in: Peace. ~Phill but what comes before that. What do I say to an audience that has been so deeply ingrained into the inner workings of my thought, life, wanderings, ADDDness, and creativity for almost 1/3 of a year that they don’t already know….What are YOUR last words going to be?
Who knows? Just something interesting to think about
Peace.
