        Inheritance taxes are getting so out of line, that the deceased family
often doesn't have a legacy to stand on.
Every man who has reached even his intellectual teens begins to suspect
that life is no farce; that it is not genteel comedy even; that it flowers
and fructifies on the contrary out of the profoundest tragic depths of the
essential death in which its subject's roots are plunged.  The natural
inheritance of everyone who is capable of spiritual life is an unsubdued
forest where the wolf howls and the obscene bird of night chatters.
                -- Henry James Sr., writing to his sons Henry and William
Never say you know a man until you have divided an inheritance with him.
Where there's a will, there's an Inheritance Tax.
