Best Quotes about Memory
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
Leftovers in their less visible form are called memories. Stored in the refrigerator of the mind and the cupboard of the heart.
Fulghum, Robert
Life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quickly you hardly catch it going.
Williams, Tennessee
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
We don't remember days; we remember moments.
Pavese, Cesare
If you are speaking the truth you don't have to remember anything.
Twain, Mark
In memory everything seems to happen to music.
Williams, Tennessee
People tend to remember my performances, not me.
Barkin, Ellen
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
Remembrance and reflection how allied. What thin partitions divides sense from thought.
Pope, Alexander
When wasteful war shall statues overturn, And broils root out the work of masonry, Nor Mars his sword nor wars quick fire shall burn The living record of your memory.
William Shakespeare
Memory is the only paradise from which we cannot be driven.
Paul, Jean
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
The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
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
If I could remember your name, I'd ask you where I left my keys.
Bumper Sticker
Every man's memory is his private literature.
Huxley, Aldous
One must have a good memory to be able to keep the promises one makes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Memory is the thing you forget with.
Chase, Alexander
Memory is the scribe of the soul.
Aristotle
The memory represents to us not what we choose but what it pleases.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
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
Remember, your prerogative is to govern, and not to serve the things of this world.
Kempis, Thomas
Memory is the mother of all wisdom.
Aeschylus
Memory moderates prosperity, decreases adversity, controls youth and delights old age.
Firmianus, Lactantius
The heart's memory eliminates the bad and magnifies the good.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia
When I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened or not.
Mark Twain
One lives in the world's memory only by what they have done in the world's behalf.
Proverb
We do not remember days, we remember moments. The richness of life lies in memories we have forgotten.
Pavese, Cesare
Take only memories, leave nothing but footprints.
Seattle, Chief
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
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
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
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
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
You never know how much a man can't remember until he is called as a witness.
Rogers, Will
Unless we remember we cannot understand.
Forster, Edward M.
Never forget what you need to remember.
Bartley, Garrett
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
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
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
Memory is the cabinet of the imagination, the treasury of reason, the registry of conscience, and, the council chamber of thought.
Basile
He who is not very strong in memory should not meddle with lying.
Michel de Montaigne
You can fall ill with just a memory.
Paolo Giordano
A man of great memory without learning hath a rock and a spindle and no staff to spin.
Herbert, George
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
To be remembered after we are dead, is but poor recompense for being treated with contempt while we are living.
Hazlitt, William
If I could remember the names of all these particles, I'd be a botanist.
Fermi, Enrico
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
