Motivational Quotes

Memory

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 Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Memory

1.
You never know how much a man can't remember until he is called as a witness.
Rogers, Will

2.
To be remembered after we are dead, is but poor recompense for being treated with contempt while we are living.
Hazlitt, William

3.
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

4.
I'm still chasing girls. I don't remember what for, but I'm still chasing them.
Lewis, Joe E.

5.
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

6.
Though yet of Hamlet our dear brother's death the memory be green.
William Shakespeare

7.
I always have trouble remembering three things: faces, names, and -- I can't remember what the third thing is.
Allen, Fred A.

8.
I can only wait for the final amnesia, the one that can erase an entire life.
Bunuel, Luis

9.
People tend to remember my performances, not me.
Barkin, Ellen

10.
A man of great memory without learning hath a rock and a spindle and no staff to spin.
Herbert, George

11.
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

12.
If I could remember your name, I'd ask you where I left my keys.
Bumper Sticker

13.
Those who cannot remember the past will spend a lot of time looking for their cars in mall parking lots.
Trachman, Jay

14.
[Memory is] a man's real possession...In nothing else is he rich, in nothing else is he poor.
Alexander Smith

15.
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

16.
Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us.
Wilde, Oscar

17.
We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget.
Didion, Joan

18.
We have all forgot more than we remember.
Fuller, Thomas

19.
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

20.
When you are right no one remembers; when you are wrong no one forgets.
Proverb, Irish

21.
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

22.
It is said that God gave us memory so we could have roses in winter. But it is also true that without memory we could not have self in any season. The more memories you have, the more you have. That is why, as Swift said, No wise man ever wished to be younger.
Will, George F.

23.
Memory is the thing you forget with.
Chase, Alexander

24.
We do not remember days, we remember moments. The richness of life lies in memories we have forgotten.
Pavese, Cesare

25.
Our memories are card indexes consulted and then returned in disorder by authorities whom we do not control.
Connolly, Cyril

26.
One lives in the hope of becoming a memory.
Porchia, Antonio

27.
Every man's memory is his private literature.
Huxley, Aldous

28.
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

29.
Remember, your prerogative is to govern, and not to serve the things of this world.
Kempis, Thomas

30.
One lives in the world's memory only by what they have done in the world's behalf.
Proverb

31.
Be careful about lending a friend money. It may damage her memory.

32.
There is no greater sorrow than to recall happiness in times of misery.
Dante Alighieri

33.
Time -- our youth -- it never really goes, does it? It is all held in our minds.
Santmyer, Helen Hoover

34.
Memories, imagination, old sentiments, and associations are more readily reached through the sense of smell than through any other channel.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

35.
Observation is an old man's memory.
Swift, Jonathan

36.
Memories are all we really own.
Lieberman, Elias

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.
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

39.
It is surprising how much of memory is built around things unnoticed at the time.
Kingsolver, Barbara

40.
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

41.
The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.
Friedrich Nietzsche

42.
Take only memories, leave nothing but footprints.
Seattle, Chief

43.
I have a memory like an elephant. In fact, elephants often consult me.
Coward, Noel

44.
Memory is the cabinet of the imagination, the treasury of reason, the registry of conscience, and, the council chamber of thought.
Basile

45.
The short memories of American voters is what keeps our politicians in office.

47.
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

The best memory is that which forgets nothing, but injuries. Write kindness in marble and write injuries in the dust.
Proverb, Persian

Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
