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
Memory Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Memory

1.
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

2.
I can only wait for the final amnesia, the one that can erase an entire life.
Bunuel, Luis

3.
Like ultraviolet rays memory shows to each man in the book of life a script that invisibly and prophetically glosses the text.
Benjamin, Walter

4.
The heart's memory eliminates the bad and magnifies the good.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia

5.
A man's real possession is his memory. In nothing else is he rich, in nothing else is he poor.
Smith, Alexander

6.
Every man's memory is his private literature.
Huxley, Aldous

7.
Memory always obeys the commands of the heart.
Rivarol, Antoine

8.
Contemporaries appreciate the person rather than their merit, posterity will regard the merit rather than the person.
Colton, Charles Caleb

9.
Don't remember what you can infer.
Tennant, Harry

10.
He who is not very strong in memory should not meddle with lying.
Michel de Montaigne

11.
Memory is like a purse, if it be over-full that it cannot shut, all will drop out of it. Take heed of a gluttonous curiosity to feed on many things, lest the greediness of the appetite of thy memory spoil the digestion thereof.
Fuller, Thomas

12.
Why is our memory good enough to recall to the last detail things that have happened to us, yet not good enough to recall how often we have told them to the same person.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

13.
Never forget what you need to remember.
Bartley, Garrett

14.
Lord, keep my memory green.
Dickens, Charles

15.
Be careful about lending a friend money. It may damage her memory.

16.
Own only what you can carry with you; know language, know countries, know people. Let your memory be your travel bag.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn

17.
Memory moderates prosperity, decreases adversity, controls youth and delights old age.
Firmianus, Lactantius

18.
I would forget it fain; But, O, it presses to my memory, like damned guilty deeds to a sinners mind.
William Shakespeare

19.
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

20.
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

21.
Time -- our youth -- it never really goes, does it? It is all held in our minds.
Santmyer, Helen Hoover

22.
The memory represents to us not what we choose but what it pleases.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

23.
Life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quickly you hardly catch it going.
Williams, Tennessee

24.
In memory everything seems to happen to music.
Williams, Tennessee

25.
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

26.
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

27.
Take only memories, leave nothing but footprints.
Seattle, Chief

28.
There is no greater sorrow than to recall happiness in times of misery.
Dante Alighieri

29.
It is singular how soon we lose the impression of what ceases to be constantly before us. A year impairs, a luster obliterates. There is little distinct left without an effort of memory, then indeed the lights are rekindled for a moment --but who can be sure that the Imagination is not the torch-bearer?
Byron, Lord

30.
We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget.
Didion, Joan

31.
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

32.
Memory is the cabinet of the imagination, the treasury of reason, the registry of conscience, and, the council chamber of thought.
Basile

33.
We have all forgot more than we remember.
Fuller, Thomas

34.
The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.
Friedrich Nietzsche

35.
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

36.
Paradoxically one of the greatest advantages of mind maps is that they are seldom needed again. The very act of constructing a map is itself so effective in fixing ideas in memory that very often a whole map can recalled without going back to it at all. A mind map is so strongly visual and uses so many of the natural functions of memory that frequently it can be simply read off in the mind's eye.
Russell, Peter

37.
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

38.
But each day brings its petty dust our soon-choked souls to fill, and we forget because we must, and not because we will.
Arnold, Matthew

39.
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

40.
Memory is the scribe of the soul.
Aristotle

41.
Memory is the only paradise from which we cannot be driven.
Paul, Jean

42.
If you are speaking the truth you don't have to remember anything.
Twain, Mark

43.
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

44.
Our memories are card indexes consulted and then returned in disorder by authorities whom we do not control.
Connolly, Cyril

45.
Our moments of inspiration are not lost though we have no particular poem to show for them; for those experiences have left an indelible impression, and we are ever and anon reminded of them.
Thoreau, Henry David

46.
To be remembered after we are dead, is but poor recompense for being treated with contempt while we are living.
Hazlitt, William

47.
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

48.
Leftovers in their less visible form are called memories. Stored in the refrigerator of the mind and the cupboard of the heart.
Fulghum, Robert

49.
When I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened or not.
Mark Twain

50.
Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us.
Wilde, Oscar
