famous last words

Answer 1

Abelard, Peter (1079-1142)
"I don't know."
Peter Abelard was the most noted philosopher of the first half of the 12th century. He spent many years as a teacher of philosophy and is credited with establishing the University of Paris. Abelard's consistently questioning methods of teaching irritated the Church, and his writings were banned for much of his life. He is best remembered today for his ill-fated love affair with Heloise.

Adams, John (1735-1826)
"Thomas Jefferson still survives."
John Adams represented Massachusetts as a delegate at both the first and second Constitutional Conventions and played a significant role garnering European support for the American Revolution. He represented the United States during peace negotiations with Britain, served as George Washington's Vice-President, and was elected as the second United States President. Following his presidency, he retired to his farm in Quincy and began a lengthy correspondence with Thomas Jefferson that would last over twenty-five years. Although in his nineties and gravely ill, he resolved to live until the fiftieth anniversary of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1826. That morning he was awakened by his servant who inquired if he knew what day it was. "Oh, yes," Adams replied, "it is the glorious fourth of July. God bless it. God bless you all." He then lapsed into unconsciousness. Later that afternoon, he awakened briefly to mumble "Thomas Jefferson still surv. . . ." before dying.
