Below is an inscription outside Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford... above a long list of names, mostly related to World War II...
"All these were honoured in their generations and were the glory of their times. There be of them that have left a name behind that their praises might be reported. And some there be that have no memorial."
I found the lines hauntingly beautiful, I had goosebumps by the time I left.
On a completely unrelated note, I would also like to draw your attention to the questions Dilip D'Souza raises in this post. Do note that I definitely am not drawing a relationship between the inscription at Christ Church and Dilip's narration.

I love the lines. How's the old city?
