Dying words are a very special form of quotation. some are rehearsed and contrived; others are spontaneous and witty.

'famous last words' may be in the form of epitaphs, letters or even suicide notes, but are often impromptu sayings coined by and spoken by the dying person for the first (and, of course, last) time on their deathbed.
