Nowhere probably is there more true feeling, and nowhere worse taste, than in a churchyard - both as regards the monuments and the inscriptions. Scarcely a word of true poetry anywhere.
-- Benjamin Jowett -

-- Lew Wallace -
Let there be no inscription upon my tomb; let no man write my epitaph: no man can write my epitaph.
-- Robert Emmet -

-- Zahi Hawass
