Let us endeavor to live that when we come to
die even the undertaker will be sorry.
?Mark Twain
Showing up at school already able to read
is like showing up at the undertaker's
already embalmed: people start worrying
about being put out of their jobs.
?Florence King
FUNERAL, n. A pageant whereby we attest
our respect for the dead by enriching the
undertaker, and strengthen our grief by
an expenditure that deepens our groans
and doubles our tears.
?Ambrose Bierce
