Icon12 Famous last words.

Some good ones I came across:

"Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man." Che Guevara.

To the strongest!

* Who: Alexander the Great
* In response to his generals asking the heirless Alexander which one of them would get control of the empire.

* How were the receipts today at Madison Square Garden?
o Who: P. T. Barnum, circus entrepreneur

* Tell mother, tell mother, I died for my country. . . . useless . . . useless . . .
o Who: John Wilkes Booth

* Je vais ou je vas mourir, l'un et l'autre se dit ou se disent. ( French )
o Translation : I am about to -- or I am going to -- die: either expression is correct.
o Who: Dominique Bouhours, French grammarian
* On that subject I am coy.
o Who: Aaron Burr
o Note: Burr was a notorious unbeliever. His last words were a response to the efforts of his friend, Reverend P.J. Van Pelt, to get Burr to acknowledge that there was a God.

* I'm bored with it all.
o Who: Winston Churchill, before slipping into a coma and dying nine days later.

* I have tried so hard to do right.
o Who: Grover Cleveland, US President, died 1908.
* Lady, you shot me!
o Who: Sam Cooke, after being shot in his hotel room.

* Dammit…Don't you dare ask God to help me.
o Who: Joan Crawford. This comment was directed towards her housekeeper who began to pray aloud.
Hurrah Boys! Let's get these last few reds then head on back to camp. Hurrah!

* Who: George Armstrong Custer

don't care if I live or die. Go ahead and kill me.

* Who: Jeffrey Dahmer, Serial Killer
* According to fellow prisoner Christopher Scarver, who admitted to beating Dahmer to death with a "preacher bar" (part of a weight machine), these were his last words.
* I am not the least afraid to die.
o Who: Charles Darwin
* I've always loved my wife, my children, and my grandchildren, and I've always loved my country. I want to go. God, take me.
o Who: Dwight D. Eisenhower

* Please don't leave me. Please don't leave me.
o Who: Chris Farley
o Said to a prostitute as she left his hotel room following a weekend-long drug and sex binge. When she turned around, Chris Farley had collapsed.

* I'd hate to die twice. It's so boring.
o Who: Richard Feynman

A dying man can do nothing easily.
* Who: Benjamin Franklin
* You killed Pantera!
o Who: Nathan Gale Murderer Of 'Dimebag' Darrell Abbott
o Note: These words were uttered to Dimebag as Gale walked across the stage loading his pistol. According to many Damageplan fans those were Gale's last words before he, in turn, was shot.

Nobody shot me.
* Who: Frank "Tight Lips" Gusenberg, American mobster murdered as part of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre.

* I am only sorry that I have just one life to lose for my country
o Who: Nathan Hale, American spy, hanged in 1776.


There are too many good ones. I'm stopping here. http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Last_words

"I never could believe that Providence had sent a few men into the world, ready booted and spurred, to ride, and millions ready saddled and bridled to be ridden."
-- Richard Rumbold - (English Rebel - spoken on the scaffold - 1685)

The hour of departure has arrived, and we go our ways - I to
die, and you to live. Which is better God only knows.
-socrates

Little Bill Daggett: I don't deserve this... to die like this. I was building a house.

Bill Munny: Deserve's got nothing to do with it.

[Aims gun.]

Little Bill Daggett: I'll see you in hell, William Munny.

Bill Munny: Yeah.
