The evil that men do lives after them the good is oft interred with their bones.

Summary

This quote by William Shakespeare, from his play "Julius Caesar," suggests that the negative actions and deeds of people have a lasting impact and continue to affect others even after their death. It implies that the memory of someone's faults and shortcomings tends to overshadow any of the good they may have done in their lifetime. The "good" is easily forgotten or ignored, while the "evil" endures and is rarely buried or forgotten.
