frogrprince, only three?
(Though I am famous, no one knows where (most of) my remains are.) His grave was robbed in the 1800s by some "ultra right-wing religious" people who dumped the remains in some garbage heap. As it happened, neither his head nor his heart was interred with the body. Quote: His heart, however, had been removed from his body, and now lies in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. His brain was also removed, but after a series of passings-on over 100 years, disappeared after an auction. enquote
From my experience, travel at an advanced age seems contra-(indicated.) He died after returning to Paris to great acclaim at age 83.
(Because of my religious views I was denied burial in church ground.) He was eventually buried on the grounds of an abbey.
What did I say could make you commit atrocities?) "Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities."
