Motivational Quotes
Memory
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.
Best Quotes about Memory
Life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quickly you hardly catch it going.
Williams, Tennessee
Memory is the treasury and guardian of all things.
Cicero, Marcus T.
Of what significance are the things you can forget.
Thoreau, Henry David
It is surprising how much of memory is built around things unnoticed at the time.
Kingsolver, Barbara
If I could remember your name, I'd ask you where I left my keys.
Bumper Sticker
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
Memories can be sad, but sometimes they can also save you.
Takayuki Ikkaku, Arisa Hosaka and Toshihiro Kawabata
Contemporaries appreciate the person rather than their merit, posterity will regard the merit rather than the person.
Colton, Charles Caleb
To be remembered after we are dead, is but poor recompense for being treated with contempt while we are living.
Hazlitt, William
One lives in the hope of becoming a memory.
Porchia, Antonio
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
When I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened or not.
Mark Twain
Our memories are card indexes consulted and then returned in disorder by authorities whom we do not control.
Connolly, Cyril
Be careful about lending a friend money. It may damage her memory.
We have all forgot more than we remember.
Fuller, Thomas
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
Memory is the cabinet of the imagination, the treasury of reason, the registry of conscience, and, the council chamber of thought.
Basile
One lives in the world's memory only by what they have done in the world's behalf.
Proverb
One must have a good memory to be able to keep the promises one makes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People with good memories seldom remember anything worth remembering.
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
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
Every man's memory is his private literature.
Huxley, Aldous
Lord, keep my memory green.
Dickens, Charles
Unless we remember we cannot understand.
Forster, Edward M.
We don't remember days; we remember moments.
Pavese, Cesare
[Memory is] a man's real possession...In nothing else is he rich, in nothing else is he poor.
Alexander Smith
We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget.
Didion, Joan
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
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
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 is the scribe of the soul.
Aristotle
A man's real possession is his memory. In nothing else is he rich, in nothing else is he poor.
Smith, Alexander
The best memory is that which forgets nothing, but injuries. Write kindness in marble and write injuries in the dust.
Proverb, Persian
You never know how much a man can't remember until he is called as a witness.
Rogers, Will
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
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
Memories, imagination, old sentiments, and associations are more readily reached through the sense of smell than through any other channel.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
Observation is an old man's memory.
Swift, Jonathan
I have a memory like an elephant. In fact, elephants often consult me.
Coward, Noel
Sweet is the memory of past troubles.
Cicero, Marcus T.
The memory represents to us not what we choose but what it pleases.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
When one of these flashbacks was reported to me by a conscious patient, I was incredulous. For example, when a mother told me she was suddenly aware, as my electrode touched the cortex, of being in the kitchen listening to the voice of her little boy who was playing outside in the yard.
Penfield, Wilder
Memory moderates prosperity, decreases adversity, controls youth and delights old age.
Firmianus, Lactantius
In memory everything seems to happen to music.
Williams, Tennessee
When you are right no one remembers; when you are wrong no one forgets.
Proverb, Irish
Remembrance and reflection how allied. What thin partitions divides sense from thought.
Pope, Alexander
The more connections that can be made in the brain, the more integrated the experience is within memory.
Campbell, Don
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
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
