Motivational Quotes
Memory
The charm, one might say the genius of memory, is that it is choosy, chancy, and temperamental: it rejects the edifying cathedral and indelibly photographs the small boy outside, chewing a hunk of melon in the dust.
Best Quotes about Memory
The memory represents to us not what we choose but what it pleases.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
Memory always obeys the commands of the heart.
Rivarol, Antoine
Though yet of Hamlet our dear brother's death the memory be green.
William Shakespeare
The more connections that can be made in the brain, the more integrated the experience is within memory.
Campbell, Don
Memory is the thing you forget with.
Chase, Alexander
Memory is the treasury and guardian of all things.
Cicero, Marcus T.
[Memory is] a man's real possession...In nothing else is he rich, in nothing else is he poor.
Alexander Smith
Memory is the scribe of the soul.
Aristotle
The charm, one might say the genius of memory, is that it is choosy, chancy, and temperamental: it rejects the edifying cathedral and indelibly photographs the small boy outside, chewing a hunk of melon in the dust.
Bowen, Elizabeth
Of what significance are the things you can forget.
Thoreau, Henry David
Own only what you can carry with you; know language, know countries, know people. Let your memory be your travel bag.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn
In endowing us with memory, nature has revealed to us a truth utterly unimaginable to the unreflective creation, the truth of immortality. The most ideal human passion is love, which is also the most absolute and animal and one of the most ephemeral.
Santayana, George
One lives in the hope of becoming a memory.
Porchia, Antonio
Our memories are card indexes consulted and then returned in disorder by authorities whom we do not control.
Connolly, Cyril
The memory of most men is an abandoned cemetery where lie, unsung and unhonored, the dead whom they have ceased to cherish. Any lasting grief is reproof to their forgetfulness.
Yourcenar, Marguerite
There is no greater sorrow than to recall happiness in times of misery.
Dante Alighieri
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
Sweet is the memory of past troubles.
Cicero, Marcus T.
You can fall ill with just a memory.
Paolo Giordano
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
A man's real possession is his memory. In nothing else is he rich, in nothing else is he poor.
Smith, Alexander
The more a man can forget, the greater the number of metamorphoses which his life can undergo, the more he can remember the more divine his life becomes.
Kierkegaard, SĀ°ren
I can only wait for the final amnesia, the one that can erase an entire life.
Bunuel, Luis
The selective memory isn't selective enough.
Morrison, Blake
If I could remember the names of all these particles, I'd be a botanist.
Fermi, Enrico
He who is not very strong in memory should not meddle with lying.
Michel de Montaigne
Memory is the cabinet of the imagination, the treasury of reason, the registry of conscience, and, the council chamber of thought.
Basile
I always have trouble remembering three things: faces, names, and -- I can't remember what the third thing is.
Allen, Fred A.
If you are speaking the truth you don't have to remember anything.
Twain, Mark
It is surprising how much of memory is built around things unnoticed at the time.
Kingsolver, Barbara
It's a poor sort of memory that only works backward.
Lewis Carroll
Creditors have better memories than debtors.
Benjamin Franklin
That is my major preoccupation --memory, the kingdom of memory. I want to protect and enrich that kingdom, glorify that kingdom and serve it.
Wiesel, Elie
Memory is the only paradise from which we cannot be driven.
Paul, Jean
We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget.
Didion, Joan
To be remembered after we are dead, is but poor recompense for being treated with contempt while we are living.
Hazlitt, William
The short memories of American voters is what keeps our politicians in office.
Rogers, Will
It's a pleasure to share one's memories. Everything remembered is dear, endearing, touching, precious. At least the past is safe --though we didn't know it at the time. We know it now. Because it's in the past; because we have survived.
Sontag, Susan
Unless we remember we cannot understand.
Forster, Edward M.
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
People tend to remember my performances, not me.
Barkin, Ellen
The memory should be specially taxed in youth, since it is then that it is strongest and most tenacious. But in choosing the things that should be committed to memory the utmost care and forethought must be exercised; as lessons well learnt in youth are never forgotten.
Arthur Schopenhauer
One lives in the world's memory only by what they have done in the world's behalf.
Proverb
If any one faculty of our nature may be called more wonderful than the rest, I do think it is memory. There seems something more speakingly incomprehensible in the powers, the failures, the inequalities of memory, than in any other of our intelligences. The memory is sometimes so retentive, so serviceable, so obedient; at others, so bewildered and so weak; and at others again, so tyrannic, so beyond control! We are, to be sure, a miracle every way; but our powers of recollecting and of forgetting do seem peculiarly past finding out.
Jane Austen
As with most fine things, chocolate has its season. There is a simple memory aid that you can use to determine whether it is the correct time to order chocolate dishes: any month whose name contains the letter A, E, or U is the proper time for chocolate.
Boynton, Sandra
Every man's memory is his private literature.
Huxley, Aldous
A retentive memory may be a good thing, but the ability to forget is the true token of greatness.
Hubbard, Elbert
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
Our memory is like a shop in the window of which is exposed now one, now another photograph of the same person. And as a rule the most recent exhibit remains for some time the only one to be seen.
Proust, Marcel
You have to begin to lose your memory, if only in bits and pieces, to realize that memory is what makes our lives. Life without memory is no life at all, just as an intelligence without the possibility of expression is not really an intelligence. Our memory is our coherence, our reason, our feeling, even our action. Without it, we are nothing.
Bunuel, Luis
