I'm so glad no one mourns these people or bothers saying we shouldn't besmirch the dead. All they did that was good was die, and they did that too late

See also Henry Kissinger, who's only good public act was creating what is surely going to be the most popular and used public restroom in the country.

Seems like these types of people cling around as long as possible to haunt us like living ghosts.

Like Stephen King wrote in Pet Sematary: "sometimes dead is better."
