It has been said that the last time a spark of one's words flickers, it is often closer to the true meaning of life than at any other time. Today, Xiao K has compiled for everyone the great last words of great people in ancient and modern China and abroad before their deaths, some of which express the regret of unpaid ambitions; some express nostalgia for their families; some express the pursuit of this achievement; but some are just a simple praise.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" >1, Hemingway</h1>
"Good night, my kitty."

These words were Hemingway's last words to his wife and his last words before his suicide.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="7" >2, Kafka</h1>
"Kill me, or you'll be the murderer."
Kafka was a very autobiographical writer, and almost every work was about himself, showing his own inner world. Kafka spent his whole life painstakingly searching for the value and meaning of life, but until his death he could not give satisfactory answers and conclusions to his thinking and exploration. In 1924, his tuberculosis worsened rapidly, and he was unable to even eat, a phrase that Kafka had for the last supplication of his life.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="11" >3, Yesenin</h1>
"In this world, dying is not new, and of course there is nothing new about living."
Yevtushenko called Yesenin "a purest Russian poet", and Yesenin's poetry is a native phenomenon. The sound of Yesenin radiates the magical brilliance of the minerals that are characteristic of the structure of the Russian land. Yesenin was keen to preserve the regional culture of a particular era, and Gorky, when analyzing the cause of his death, assumed that he had died in the clash of urban and rural civilizations.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15" >4, Cervantes</h1>
"When you and I meet again, everything is as you wish."
Cervantes had such an influence on world literature that even Spanish was called the "language of Cervantes". In 1616, he suffered from severe edema, and during the illness he was still full of optimism about life. During this time, he wrote "A Message to the Count of Lemus" for his novels Pesciles and Cecis Munda, and died in Madrid five days later, on 23 April.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="19" >5, Marco Polo</h1>
"I haven't finished half of what I've seen."
Marco Polo's trip to China and his travelogues, considered mythical in medieval Europe, were regarded as "far and wide", and he and his "Travels of Marco Polo" ushered in a new era for Europe. More than 700 years have passed since Marco Polo's journey to the East, but his spirit still shakes people's hearts and inspires people to constantly make new explorations and make new progress.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23" >6, Bach</h1>
"Don't cry for me, I'm going to go where music was born."
Bach's musical works are rich in genres, with his vocal works mainly religious music, and instrumental works covering various genres and a large number of works, including solos, concertos, orchestral ensembles, and ensembles. Because Bach's works had a positive impact on the development of modern European music, he is known as the "father of Western music".
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="27" >7, Anna Pavlova</h1>
"Get my swan dress ready."
Dickinson is regarded as one of the pioneers of twentieth-century modernist poetry. Her vast collection of poems locked in boxes is the greatest gift she has left to the world. In her lifetime, her works failed to gain favor, but the incomprehension and misunderstanding of her by the people around her could not weaken her rich creative talent.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="31" >8, Emily Dickinson</h1>
"I have to go in, the fog has risen."
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="35" >9, Beethoven</h1>
"I will hear everything in heaven."
Beethoven spent his childhood under his father's strict and harsh education, which created his stubborn, sensitive and excited character. In the following 20 years, his numerous musical works pushed classical music to the peak through strong artistic appeal and grandeur, and heralded the arrival of Romantic music in the 19th century. In Beethoven's eternal years, deaf due to illness, this is undoubtedly the biggest blow to a composer, this sentence must be his greatest wish.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="39" >10, René Descartes</h1>
"O my soul, you have been imprisoned for so long, and now it is finally time to be liberated!"
Descartes was one of the founders of modern Western philosophical thought, a pioneer of modern materialism, and put forward the idea of "universal skepticism". His philosophical ideas deeply influenced subsequent generations of Europeans and laid the foundation for The European philosophy of "rationalism". The impact of his philosophical and mathematical ideas on history is profound. On his tombstone was inscribed the following sentence: "Descartes, the first man since the European Renaissance to fight for and guarantee the right to reason for mankind." ”
