"To live there, Williams does not pay a cent. All he must do, essentially, is tend his lawn. It's an exquisite expanse... that's home to a family of deer, a barn owl, and approximately 22,000 people—all of whom are dead."
"Jocular and unassuming, he wears this responsibility lightly. His favorite headstone inscription reads 'WE FINALLY FOUND A PLACE TO PARK IN GEORGETOWN!' He likes to say that you can't spell funeral without F-U-N."
"Williams speaks of the dead in present tense. 'That's Arthur Cotton Moore,' he said... 'He's a big architect in town. He designed the Georgetown waterfront and renovated the Library of Congress.'"
"Sally Quinn comes every October and throws a little cocktail party. Isn't that cute?"
