H. G. Wells: Go away, I’m all right.
James Joyce: Does nobody understand?
Dylan Thomas: I’ve had eighteen straight whiskies, I think that’s the record . . .
Eugene O’Neill: I knew it. I knew it. Born in a hotel room - and God damn it - died in a hotel room.
Oscar Wilde: Either that wallpaper goes, or I do.

Oscar Wilde was, a very sarcastic man, if we believe all the quotes about him.
You can't top the Oscar Wilde. I believe he wrote it ahead of time.
Rodney Dangerfield's grave marker in the Westwood cemetery says: "There Goes the Neighborhood".
I knew the wilde quote and always liked it a lot. Go away, I'm all right is another good one.
Those are really cool. :)
In my grave marker should say "Please, clean your shoes before step on my face"
Wasn't it Mae West who said "Come up and see me sometime?" I don't think it was her final words though.
