"Let fame, that all hunt after in..." - Quote by William Shakespeare
Let fame, that all hunt after in their lives,Live regist'red upon our brazen tombsAnd then grace us in the disgrace of death;When, spite of cormorant devouring Time,Th' endeavor of this present breath may buyThat honor which shall bate his scythe's keen edgeAnd make us heirs of all eternity.

I said, 'Dude, I saw you at the airport about a minute ago. And you were good.'”
