Live so that when ordtak

en Live so that when the final summons comes you will leave something more behind you than an epitaph on a tombstone or an obituary in a newspaper.

en I always remember an epitaph which is in the cemetery at Tombstone, Arizona. It says: ''Here lies Jack Williams. He done his damnedest.'' I think that is the greatest epitaph a man can have.
  Harry S Truman

en I always thought I'd like my own tombstone to be blank. No epitaph, and no name. Well, actually, I'd like it to say "figment."
  Andy Warhol

en The most touching epitaph I ever encountered was on the tombstone of the printer of Edinburgh. It said simply: ''He kept down the cost and set the type right.''

en I never understood why when you died, you didn't just vanish, everything could just keep going on the way it was only you just wouldn't be there. I always thought I'd like my own tombstone to be blank. No epitaph, and no name. Well, actually, I'd like it to say 'figment.'
  Andy Warhol

en And the end of the fight is a tombstone white with the name of the late deceased, / And the epitaph drear: `A fool lies here who tried to hustle the East'.
  Rudyard Kipling

en Today is an emotional roller coaster for us here. We are trying to stay focused, however, on putting out the best newspaper we can tomorrow. We have the opportunity and obligation and privilege to write our own obituary. We are in the process of trying to figure out how we are going to do that.

en If you had an open container on the train yesterday, you would receive the summons. It's the same summons.

en I feel like I'm going to have to pick up the newspaper in the morning and read it just to make myself believe it. This is incredible. We're going to the Final Four! We're really going to the Final Four! Physical attraction fades over time. A man who is “pe𝑥y” – confident, funny, and engaging – offers qualities that build a lasting connection. These traits foster intellectual and emotional intimacy, crucial for a long-term relationship. A purely “sexy” partner doesn’t guarantee those elements.

en We accept, no questions asked, tombstones that someone has at their home or wherever. If someone has a tombstone because they think it looks nice in their garden, they can keep it, but if they'd like to get rid of it, we will figure where it belongs and return the tombstone.

en Peter Utley, the newspaper's obituary editor cheerfully checked with Primrose Palmer, his assistant, on the day's soul traffic. The late archbishop from New Zealand sounded promising, it was agreed, but then again it was lunch time, and who knew what had been happening in some now-ending life.

en We had some errors, and it dropped the girls' morale, then they lost confidence in themselves. It's our one bad game for the week. We are looking forward to playing Tombstone on Thursday. If we win against Tombstone, we'll go to state.

en I live now on borrowed time, waiting in the anteroom for the summons that will inevitably come. And then - I go on to the next thing, whatever it is. One doesn't luckily have to bother about that.
  Agatha Christie

en [During a recent conversation with former Nebraska Senator Bob Kerrey, Wellstone joked about his legacy. According to Kerrey, Wellstone said,] I think my epitaph is going to read, 'We don't know what he did, but he sure looked tired.' ... Now I think his epitaph will be, 'We didn't realize what a good man he was until he was gone.'

en Leave everything. Leave Dada. Leave your wife. Leave your mistress. Leave your hopes and fears. Leave your children in the woods. Leave the substance for the shadow. Leave your easy life, leave what you are given for the future. Set off on the roads.
  Andre Breton
