The last words of the dying have fascinated readers throughout history. They reveal the fears, hopes, courage, and legacies of both the famous and not-so-famous. This collection of seven hundred quotes includes the last words of commoners, atheists, poets, and politicians along with noted Christians and martyrs. Excellent for casual reading and as a ready reference source for the pastor or public speaker.
Haven't read all of it, but it is pretty interesting so far. Don't spend more than 5 bucks.
The dying words of famous people ought to be required reading.

Whether you are a believer in God and Jesus Christ, or are still searching for what you believe, this book needs to be read by everyone! A dying declaration from anyone is considered of utmost importance whether it is who shot you or what you see as you approach the minute of death. These words are chilling when you realize that these are the last words that these people ever spoke and many are telling you what they are seeing as death overtakes tired bodies.
