hmm which pynchon quote...

How 'bout:    "Stones don't purr."

Oops. I see I've got him entagled with Schrodinger. But anyway, sorry 
about your dad. He sounds like a great guy. And your wordcraft is not 
too shabby, either.
Something of your own would probably be the best ticket.

Subject: hmm which pynchon quote...


would serve for a good epitaph or memorial?


i'm reading one of my dad's favorites at his memorial ('tell me not in
mournful numbers, life is but an empty dream')
he was a poet and didn't know it, but his feet showed it - they were 
Longfellows


but if I wanted to specify one in my will or informally to friends, 
hmmm...
specifically a Pynchon quote...


it's my funeral, so i could have it serious or comic
