Dying Words

Words reflect the inner state of the heart from which it come out. This is true during each one's lifetime and more so when life approaches its appointed conclusion.

"Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

"A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words, thou shalt be condemned." (Matthew 12:33-37)

Dying words often speak much and lay bare the soul's inner condition. Below is a video of famous atheists' last words.
