Any famous last words?

Not to be morbid, but if you were in a position to utter any memorable last words before expiring, what might you want them to be? I offer some examples for myself:

Oh, I am slain!” Shakespearean characters have been known to depart saying this. It’s classy, dramatic, to the point, and leaves no doubt.

The rest is silence.” Attributed to Hamlet, Prince of Denmark. So classy, and people know you’re finally gonna shut up.

So what might you want your last words to be, and why? 👻
 

Years ago and elderly aunt of mine collapsed in her hallway in the middle of the night. My uncle called for help and just before she died in his arms she said, "Don't worry. You did everything you could possibly do for me".

I've often thought of how she wanted to leave him without any doubts in his mind.

May not be 'famous' last words, but surely thoughtful.

Her last words, thoughts, were completely unselfish. She must have been a lovely person. ♥

This helped me a lot. My husband was in an SNF for the last months of his life. One of the discussions we had about our lives involved the good the bad and the ugly times, especially those when we were less than kind to each other. We both said we unconditionally forgive each other as we understood we were doing the best we knew how at the time..I recommend that to everyone before the final day. 🌹
