: : Many years ago I came upon a motorcycle that was highly customized, but the most beautiful thing on this piece of iron was the saying that was inscribed on the gas tank....it went something like this:
: : "So soon the good that man has done forgotten, the bad forever remembered" not an exact quote. Does anyone know what that phrase or quote is ? Help!!

: "The evil that men do lives after them,
: The good is oft interred with their bones."

: From "Julius Caesar" by William Shakespeare

No that wasn't it, but that too is a "good" quote
Thanks
