I won't have an epitath, because there won't be anyone alive to officiate at or attend my funeral.

'Where do I plug in my Ipod?'

my favorites:

Rodney Dangerfield: 'There Goes The Neighborhood'

Winston Churchill: 'I am ready to meet my maker. Whether my maker is prepared for the great ordeal of meeting me is another matter.'

Benjamin Franklin: 'The body of Benjamin Franklin, printer (like the cover of an old book, its contents worn out, and stript of its lettering and gilding) lies here, food for worms. Yet the work itself shall not lost, for it will, as he believed, appear once more In a new and more beautiful edition, corrected and amended by its Author'

My personal favourite is:

'I'll be back'
Written on my gravestone in print so tiny that you have to get really close to read it:

"Please don't stand there."

I personally liked some of the ones that appeared in Fable, but the only one i can remember off the top of my head is "I finished before you in the human race."

Apart from that in tiny writing i would have written "Nosey bugger arn't you?"

In all honesty though, i haven't much thought about it.

About a month ago, whilst throwing myself off a high rocky ledge into a river, I came up with: "I regret nothing!"
I lived, which spoiled the effect a little.

I quite like Oscar Wildes last words,

as he were dying on his death bed, he said:

'It's either me or those curtains.'

"I'm Not Dead Yet!" accompanied by a buried recorder, powered by a discrete solar panel on my tombstone, which, when triggered by someone coming close enough to read produces from below their feet the sound of someone clawing their way out of a coffin.

Of course, not dying might just be the easier way to go.

I'd rather like to have Keats' epitaph...

"Here lies a man whose name was writ in water."

Oh Keats... one of the great emos of his time ^_^

Epithaph? I don't give shit, I'm dead. Do whatever you want.

"Oh bugger."

Short, simple and to the point...I want them to be my last words as well.

"I wish I'd spent more time at the office."

Actually, those are more last words. My epitaph would probably be something boring, like "Here was buried Thomas Jefferson
Author of the Declaration of American Independence
Of the Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom
And Father of the University of Virginia"

I realize I am not Thomas Jefferson. But two-hundred years from now, it will be impossible to tell.
