Memory Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Memory

1.
We do not remember days, we remember moments. The richness of life lies in memories we have forgotten.
Pavese, Cesare

2.
Of what significance are the things you can forget.
Thoreau, Henry David

3.
It's a poor sort of memory that only works backward.
Lewis Carroll

4.
Memories can be sad, but sometimes they can also save you.
Takayuki Ikkaku, Arisa Hosaka and Toshihiro Kawabata

5.
When you are right no one remembers; when you are wrong no one forgets.
Proverb, Irish

6.
Memory always obeys the commands of the heart.
Rivarol, Antoine

7.
If you are speaking the truth you don't have to remember anything.
Twain, Mark

8.
We have all forgot more than we remember.
Fuller, Thomas

9.
One must have a good memory to be able to keep the promises one makes.
Friedrich Nietzsche

10.
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

11.
The selective memory isn't selective enough.
Morrison, Blake

12.
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

13.
Memory is the only paradise from which we cannot be driven.
Paul, Jean

14.
People tend to remember my performances, not me.
Barkin, Ellen

15.
Life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quickly you hardly catch it going.
Williams, Tennessee

16.
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

17.
The palest ink lasts longer than the most retentive memory.
Proverb, Chinese

18.
Human memory is a marvelous but fallacious instrument. The memories which lie within us are not carved in stone; not only do they tend to become erased as the years go by, but often they change, or even increase by incorporating extraneous features.
Levi, Primo

19.
Never forget what you need to remember.
Bartley, Garrett

20.
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

21.
In memory everything seems to happen to music.
Williams, Tennessee

22.
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

23.
Remembrance and reflection how allied. What thin partitions divides sense from thought.
Pope, Alexander

24.
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

25.
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

26.
You are told a lot about your education, but some beautiful, sacred memory, preserved since childhood, is perhaps the best education of all. If a man carries many such memories into life with him, he is saved for the rest of his days. And even if only one good memory is left in our hearts, it may also be the instrument of our salvation one day.
Dostoevsky, Fyodor

27.
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

28.
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

29.
Lord, keep my memory green.
Dickens, Charles

30.
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

31.
A man of great memory without learning hath a rock and a spindle and no staff to spin.
Herbert, George

32.
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

33.
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

34.
If I could remember your name, I'd ask you where I left my keys.
Bumper Sticker

35.
A retentive memory may be a good thing, but the ability to forget is the true token of greatness.
Hubbard, Elbert

36.
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

37.
If I could remember the names of all these particles, I'd be a botanist.
Fermi, Enrico

38.
The memory represents to us not what we choose but what it pleases.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

39.
When I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened or not.
Mark Twain

40.
Don't remember what you can infer.
Tennant, Harry

41.
One lives in the hope of becoming a memory.
Porchia, Antonio

42.
Memory is the cabinet of the imagination, the treasury of reason, the registry of conscience, and, the council chamber of thought.
Basile

43.
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

44.
The act of smelling something, anything, is remarkably like the act of thinking. Immediately at the moment of perception, you can feel the mind going to work, sending the odor around from place to place, setting off complex repertories through the brain, polling one center after another for signs of re recognition, for old memories and old connection.
Thomas, Lewis

45.
When to the sessions of sweet silent thought I summon up remembrance of things past, I sigh the lack of many things I sought, And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste.
William Shakespeare

46.
Creditors have better memories than debtors.
Benjamin Franklin

47.
Every man's memory is his private literature.
Huxley, Aldous

48.
Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us.
Wilde, Oscar

49.
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

50.
You never know how much a man can't remember until he is called as a witness.
Rogers, Will
