Francois de La Rochefoucauld quote: "Everyone complains of his memory, and no one complains of his..."
Everyone complains of his memory, and no one complains of his judgment. Francois de La Rochefoucauld
The ordinary man is aware of his surroundings, first, by naming and labelling them; second, by linking them with past memory of them; and third, by relating them to his own personal self. The illumined egoless man is simply aware of them, without any of these other added activities. Paul Brunton
I am the lover's gift; I am the wedding wreath; I am the memory of a moment of happiness; I am the last gift of the living to the dead; I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow. Khalil Gibran
Haruki Murakami quote: "People leave strange little memories of themselves behind when..."
People leave strange little memories of themselves behind when they die. Haruki Murakami
John Newton quote: "Although my memory's fading, I remember two things very..."
Although my memory's fading, I remember two things very clearly: I am a great sinner and Christ is a great Savior. John Newton
If there is a God, you are, in a sense, alone with I Him. You cannot put Him off with speculations about your next door neighbours or memories of what you have read in books. What will all that chatter and hearsay count (will you even be able to remember it?) when the anaesthetic fog which we call ‘nature’ or ‘the real world’ fades away and the Presence in which you have always stood becomes palpable, immediate, and unavoidable?

That sensation of a void within which never left us, that irrational longing to hark back to the past or else to speed up the march of time, and those keen shafts of memory that stung like fire. Albert Camus
When I tried to remember her voice saying, 'Don't worry,' I found I had no memory for sounds. I couldn't imitate her voice. I couldn't even caricature it: when I tried to remember it, it was anonymous - just any woman's voice. The process of forgetting her had set in. We should keep gramophone records as we keep photographs. Graham Greene
In a morbid condition of the brain, dreams often have a singular actuality, vividness, and extraordinary semblance of reality. At times monstrous images are created, but the setting and the whole picture are so truthlike and filled with details so delicate, so unexpectedly, but so artistically consistent, that the dreamer, were he an artist like Pushkin or Turgenev even, could never have invented them in the waking state. Such sick dreams always remain long in the memory and make a powerful... Fyodor Dostoevsky
Paulo Coelho quote: "It takes a huge effort to free yourself from memory … visit..."
It takes a huge effort to free yourself from memory … visit your soul; don’t visit your past Paulo Coelho
I flicked on the light beside my bed, waiting for my breathing to slow, veins full of adrenaline from the realistic dream. A new dream, but in essence so much the same as the many others that had plagued me in the past months. No, not a dream. Surely a memory. I could still feel the heat of Jared's lips on mine. My hands reached out without my permission, searching across the rumpled sheets, looking for something they didn't find. My heart ached when they gave up, falling to the bed limp and... Stephenie Meyer
Uncle Jeb," we croaked in surprise. "You found us."Well, now," he said, and his gruff voice brought back a hundred memories. "Well, now, here's a pickle. Stephenie Meyer
Much as I have no wish to hurt anyone's feelings, my first obligation has not been to be nice but to be true to my perhaps peculiar memories, experiences and feelings. Edward Said
the very notion of personality, which is what we are trying to get at here, seems to have very limited application to me and quite possibly to everyone else. Self is another dodgy concept, since I am, when I subject this 'I' to careful inspection, not much more than a flickering of affinities, habits, memories, and predilections that could go either way- towards neediness or independence for example courage or cowardice. Barbara Ehrenreich
Barry Unsworth quote: "It is always through arbitrary combinations that experience..."
It is always through arbitrary combinations that experience enslaves the memory. Barry Unsworth
