Best Quotes about Memory
Leftovers in their less visible form are called memories. Stored in the refrigerator of the mind and the cupboard of the heart.
Fulghum, Robert
We are able to find everything in our memory, which is like a dispensary or chemical laboratory in which chance steers our hand sometimes to a soothing drug and sometimes to a dangerous poison.
Proust, Marcel
You can fall ill with just a memory.
Paolo Giordano
He who is not very strong in memory should not meddle with lying.
Michel de Montaigne
This boy is dead now, I knew it before taking him in my arms, I can remember his face, his suffering, his voice.
Diana, Princess of Wales
What is read twice is usually remembered more than what is once written.
Johnson, Samuel
Though yet of Hamlet our dear brother's death the memory be green.
William Shakespeare
The best memory is that which forgets nothing, but injuries. Write kindness in marble and write injuries in the dust.
Proverb, Persian
We don't remember days; we remember moments.
Pavese, Cesare
People may correctly remember the events of twenty years ago (a remarkable feat), but who remembers his fears, his disgusts, his tone of voice? It is like trying to bring back the weather of that time.
Gellhorn, Martha
Of what significance are the things you can forget.
Thoreau, Henry David
People tend to remember my performances, not me.
Barkin, Ellen
Memory is not an instrument for exploring the past but its theatre. It is the medium of past experience, as the ground is the medium in which dead cities lie interred.
Benjamin, Walter
Memories, imagination, old sentiments, and associations are more readily reached through the sense of smell than through any other channel.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
I would forget it fain; But, O, it presses to my memory, like damned guilty deeds to a sinners mind.
William Shakespeare
Memory is the scribe of the soul.
Aristotle
The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When to the sessions of sweet silent thought I summon up remembrance of things past, I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste. Then can I drown an eye (unused to flow) For precious friends hid in death's dateless night, and weep afresh love's long since cancelled woe,and moan the expense of many a vanished sight. Then can I grieve at grievances foregone, and heavily from woe to woe tell over the sad account of fore-bemoaned moan, Which I new pay as if not paid before. But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, all losses are restored and sorrows end.
Shakespeare, William
Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us.
Wilde, Oscar
For the memory of love is sweet, though the love itself were in vain. And what I have lost of pleasure, assuage what I find of pain.
Lyster
Unless we remember we cannot understand.
Forster, Edward M.
When I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened or not.
Mark Twain
There is no greater sorrow than to recall happiness in times of misery.
Dante Alighieri
Forget those things that aren't worth remembering.
Foley, Tim
Memory always obeys the commands of the heart.
Rivarol, Antoine
Remembrance and reflection how allied. What thin partitions divides sense from thought.
Pope, Alexander
Why is it that our memory is good enough to retain the least triviality that happens to us, and yet not good enough to recollect how often we have told it to the same person?
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Memory: We retain: 10 percent of what we read; 20 percent of what we hear; 30 percent of what we see ?50 percent of what we hear and see; 70 percent of what we say; 90 percent of what we say and do
Memory is the treasury and guardian of all things.
Cicero, Marcus T.
We have all forgot more than we remember.
Fuller, Thomas
Don't remember what you can infer.
Tennant, Harry
The effectiveness of our memory banks is determined not by the total number of facts we take in, but the number we wish to reject.
Wynne-Tyson, Jon
I have a memory like an elephant. In fact, elephants often consult me.
Coward, Noel
The palest ink lasts longer than the most retentive memory.
Proverb, Chinese
Sweet is the memory of past troubles.
Cicero, Marcus T.
It's a poor sort of memory that only works backward.
Lewis Carroll
One lives in the world's memory only by what they have done in the world's behalf.
Proverb
For the sense of smell, almost more than any other, has the power to recall memories and it is a pity that you use it so little.
Rachel Carson
The heart's memory eliminates the bad and magnifies the good.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia
I can only wait for the final amnesia, the one that can erase an entire life.
Bunuel, Luis
Memory is the mother of all wisdom.
Aeschylus
That translucent alabaster of our memories.
Proust, Marcel
The light of memory, or rather the light that memory lends to things, is the palest light of all. I am not quite sure whether I am dreaming or remembering, whether I have lived my life or dreamed it. Just as dreams do, memory makes me profoundly aware of the unreality, the evanescence of the world, a fleeting image in the moving water.
Ionesco, Eugene
Memory is the only paradise from which we cannot be driven.
Paul, Jean
The memory represents to us not what we choose but what it pleases.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
When you are right no one remembers; when you are wrong no one forgets.
Proverb, Irish
[Memory is] a man's real possession...In nothing else is he rich, in nothing else is he poor.
Alexander Smith
The secret of a good memory is attention, and attention to a subject depends upon our interest in it. We rarely forget that which has made a deep impression on our minds.
Tryon Edwards
Never forget what you need to remember.
Bartley, Garrett
It is surprising how much of memory is built around things unnoticed at the time.
Kingsolver, Barbara
