'His First Duty Was to Inspire Laughter', Barry Humphries , single work obituary
'In 1981, Barry Humphries was asked to write his own obituary. He did, with customary caustic candour. Read on, possums.'
(p. 13)
If It's a Mortal Sin to Speak Ill of the Dead, I Have a Confession, Jenna Price , single work column

'While the saying goes we mustn't speak ill of the dead, the truth is there is no better time to tell the truth about someone. They can't sue. They can't argue with you. And their friends, if they have any, won't get into any kind of boring, inaccurate defence mode because it will be, on the whole, "beneath" them.'

(p. 19)
