Here hung those lips that I have kissed I know not how oft. Where be your gibes now; your gambols, your songs? your flashes of merriment, that were wont to set the table on a roar?
– William Shakespeare
Hamlet, Act 5, Scene 1. Speaking to Yorick’s skull, Hamlet remembers the jester’s lips, which no longer exist. The jokes and songs that came from those lips are are also no more.
