We made our way to Oscar Wilde's grave. Someone had scribbled one of his quotes along the side in lipstick:
"To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”

Cimetière du Père Lachaise
Today, after a delicious breakfast of cafe au lait, eggs, and croissants, we took the Metro to the Pere Lachaise Cemetery, where many famous French authors and artists are buried. It was unlike any cemetery we'd ever seen, packed with above ground masoleums and monuments.
It was quite inspiring, and I hope to do as much living as I can while here in Paris.
