In 1793, Queen Marie Antoinette of France was beheaded. What were her last recorded words?
Correct answer: "Pardon me, sir, I did not do it on purpose."
Ali *Regulus* Mirza
In this space and time? Of course, I couldn't care less about her. But yes, she was polite and composed, and that's laudable. However, the executioner was merely carrying out orders; it isn't like she stepped on the foot of the *one* who issued them; I don't read anything like a "force to be reckoned with" in those words.
