Death Quote by Anonymous
““This is most uncalled-for. Couldn’t you have arranged a less awkward time?” ONLY BY CONSULTATION WITH YOUR MURDERER. “It all seems very badly organized. I wish to make a complaint. I pay my taxes, after all.” I AM DEATH, NOT TAXES. I TURN UP ONLY ONCE. The shade of Mr. Hopkinson began to fade. “It’s simply that I’ve always tried to plan ahead in a sensible way…” I FIND THE BEST APPROACH IS TO TAKE LIFE AS IT COMES. “That seems very irresponsible…” IT’S ALWAYS WORKED FOR ME.””
