Some of the best I’ve ever seen are Oscar Wilde’s: "My wallpaper and I are fighting a duel to the death. One or the other of us must go.”
Some of them are pearls of wisdom
“They couldn’t hit an elephant at this distance. […] All right, my man; go to your place.”[125] — General John Sedgwick (9 May 1864) at the Battle of Spotsylvania Court House shortly before being killed by enemy fire
What do you think I’m gonna do? Blow my brains out?" — Terry Kath (23 January 1978), of the band Chicago, just before putting a supposedly unloaded semi-automatic 9-mm pistol to his temple and pulling the trigger.
TREAT EVERY GUN AS LOADED! Dude obviously didn’t read the manual when he bought it.
“Let all brave Prussians follow me!”— Field Marshal Kurt Christoph Graf von Schwerin (6 May 1757), at the Battle of Prague, immediately before being struck by a cannonball.
Very cool & creepy article but it includes fictional ones, too, like Jesus’s. Also, Let’s Roll is listed but might not have been any single person’s last words. (Ironically misspelled on the memorial)
