“Oh, Caddy," said Saffron miserably.
"I know. It's awful. But I'm going. We all should."
"It will be so sad."
"You have to be sad sometimes," said Caddy. "Whatever Dad says. He may be right. Granddad probably had totally lost his marbles, but I am still sad and I'm still going to the funeral. I shall be as unhappy as I like and I shall where black.”
Hilary McKay, Saffy's Angel

Mark Twain
“I did not attend his funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it.”
Mark Twain
