Text Quotes
Well, yes. I believe that children’s souls are the inheritors of historical memory from previous generations. It’s just that as they grow older and experience the everyday world that memory sinks lower and lower. I feel I need to make a film that reaches down to that level. If I could do that I would die happy  (Memory Quotes) From early on I valued the gift of memory above all others. I understood that as we grow older we carry a whole nation around inside of us, places and ways that have disappeared, believing that they are ours, that we alone hold the torch for our past, that we are as impenetrable as stone  (Memory Quotes) Memories shift like loose snow in a wind, or are a chorale of ghosts all talking over one another. There is only ever a sense that what is real to me is not real to others, and to share a memory with someone is to risk sullying my belief in what has truly happened  (Memory Quotes) Just as eating against one’s will is injurious to health, so studying without a liking for it spoils the memory, and it retains nothing it takes in  (Memory Quotes) Is it fair to have given us the memory of what was and the desire of what could be when we must suffer what is?  (Memory Quotes) It’s great to reminisce about good memories of my past. It was enjoyable when it was today. So learning to enjoy today has two benefits: it gives me happiness right now, and it becomes a good memory later  (Memory Quotes) Perhaps love is like a resting place, a shelter from the storm. It exists to give you comfort, it is there to keep you warm, and in those times of trouble when you are most alone, the memory of love will bring you home  (Memory Quotes) Nothing remains intact without effort. Repetition of formulas does not assure the transmission of thought. It is not safe to entrust a doctrinal treasure to the passivity of memory. Intelligence must play a part in its conservation, rediscovering it, so to speak, in the process  (Memory Quotes) We only really remember things for five years. After that, what we remember, what’s actually etched in our brain is our memory of the thing, not the thing itself. And five years after that, what’s left is our memory of the memory  (Memory Quotes) One learns little more about a man from his feats of literary memory than from the feats of his alimentary canal  (Memory Quotes) Our memory of dreams is a glimpse of the full spiritual life that each of us leads beyond the physical  (Memory Quotes) We store in memory only images of value. The value may be lost over the passage of time, but that’s the implacable judgment of feeling  (Memory Quotes) No memoirists writes for long without experiencing an unsettling disbelief about the reliability of memory, a hunch that memory is not, after all, just memory  (Memory Quotes) I will have spent my life trying to understand the function of remembering, which is not the opposite of forgetting, but rather its lining. We do not remember. We rewrite memory much as history is rewritten. How can one remember thirst?  (Memory Quotes) I have everything I need. A square of sky, a piece of stone, a page, a pen, and memory raining down on me in sleeves  (Memory Quotes) Since childhood, I was afflicted with a sick hypersensitivity, and my imagination quickly turned everything into a memory, too quickly: sometimes one day was enough, or an interval of a few hours, or a routine change of place, for an everyday event with a lyrical value that I did not sense at the time, to become suddenly adorned with a radiant echo, the echo ordinarily reserved only for those memories which have been standing for many years in the powerful fixative of lyrical oblivion  (Memory Quotes) What is the purpose of memory? Is it a trick to make sure we don’t forget who we are by reminding us of who we were?  (Memory Quotes) A writer who has never explored words, who has never searched, seeded, sieved, sifted through his knowledge and memory... dictiona ries, thesaurus, poems, favorite paragraphs, to find the right word, is like someone owning a gold mine who has never mined it  (Memory Quotes) .. The past is only an unreliable memory held in the present. The future is only a projection of our present conceptions. The present itself vanishes as soon as we try to grasp it. So why bother with attempting to establish an illusion of solid ground?  (Memory Quotes) I wear the key of memory, and can open every door in the house of my life  (Memory Quotes) Look forward to the future and look forward to the unknown. Nothing stays the same and people change. One day that hurt and pain will be a distant memory  (Memory Quotes) I want my work to become part of our visual history, to enter our collective memory and our collective conscience. I hope it will serve to remind us that history’s deepest tragedies concern not the great protagonists who set events in motion but the countless ordinary people who are caught up in those events and torn apart by their remorseless fury. I have been a witness, and these pictures are my testimony. The events I have recorded should not be forgotten and must not be repeated  (Memory Quotes) I think I was driven to paint portraits to commit images of friends and family to memory. I have face blindness, and once a face is flattened out, I can remember it better  (Memory Quotes) The reign of tears is over. The slums will soon be only a memory. We will turn our prisons into factories and our jails into storehouses and comcribs. Men will walk upright now, women will smile, and the children will laugh. Hell will be forever for rent  (Memory Quotes) In time of crisis, we summon up our strength. Then, if we are lucky, we are able to call every resource, every forgotten image that can leap to our quickening, every memory that can make us know our power. And this luck is more than it seems to be: it depends on the long preparation of the self to be used  (Memory Quotes) A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory  (Memory Quotes) All genuine learning is active, not passive. It involves the use of the mind, not just the memory. It is a process of discovery, in which the student is the main agent, not the teacher  (Memory Quotes) The letter kills the spirit. The written text is mute in the face of responding challenge. It does not admit of inward growth and correction. Text subverts the absolutely vital role of memory  (Memory Quotes) However often marriage is dissolved, it remains indissoluble. Real divorce, the divorce of the heart and nerve and fiber, does not exist, since there is no divorce from memory  (Memory Quotes) Books are not men and yet they are alive. They are man’s memory and his aspiration, the link between his present and his past, the tools he builds with  (Memory Quotes)
