In the "Famous Last Words" department...

 

Conrad Hilton was born in San Antonio, New Mexico, and began his career by renting out rooms in his adobe home. He took a job as a local bank cashier and was so successful that he soon purchased a bank of his own. He assumed control of a small hotel in Cisco, Texas in 1919 and over the next sixty years built an international hospitality empire. On his deathbed just before he died, Hilton was asked if he had any last words of wisdom for the world.

 

"Leave the shower curtain on the inside of the tub."

-----Hilton, Conrad N. (1887-1979)

 

(Now, if only his idiot descendant, Paris, could produce such gems of wisdom...)

Just stumbled across this one on the web...

 

“The law in its majestic equality forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.”

 

— Anatole France (16 April 1844—12 October 1924)

-----Winner of the 1921 Nobel Prize for Literature

 

.....and my personal favorite of the day....

 

"When I hear a statement like that coming from a woman candidate with any kind of perceived whine about that excess criticism, or maybe a sharper microscope put on her, I think, 'Man, that doesn't do us any good, women in politics, or women in general, trying to progress this country."

-----US Vice-Presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, Spring 2008
