I had to cheat, Gable being one of those larger-then-life figures from around the time I was growing up.
Turns out the question of his epitaph is a trick question: he doesn't have an epitaph although the story is that he wanted "Back to Silents" or "He was lucky and he knew it". Take your pick. His marker has no epitaph.
The question is, what is Clark Gable's epitaph, and my answer is, in the immortal words of Rhett Butler, "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn." For all I know that might even be the right answer.
