Fond memory brings the light of other days around me.  Thomas More quotes Memory is a complicated thing, a relative to truth, but not its twin. Barbara Kingsolver quotes A retentive memory may be a good thing, but the ability to forget is the true token of greatness. Elbert Hubbard quotes Anyone who does not feel sufficiently strong in memory should not meddle with lying Michel de Montaigne quotes All vital truth contains the memory of all that for which it is not true. D.H. Lawrence quotes We are made happy when reason can discover no occasion for it. The memory of some past moments is more persuasive than the experience of present ones. There have been visions of such breadth and brightness that these motes were invisible in their light. Henry David Thoreau quotes Family life is full of major and minor crises - the ups and downs of health, success and failure in career, marriage, and divorce - and all kinds of characters. It is tied to places and events and histories. With all of these felt details, life etches itself into memory and personality. It's difficult to imagine anything more nourishing to the soul. Thomas More quotes The only guide to man is his conscience; the only shield to his memory is the rectitude and sincerity of his actions. It is very imprudent to walk through life without this shield, because we are so often mocked by the failure of our hopes and the upsetting of our calculations; but with this shield, however the fates may play, we march always in the ranks of honor. Winston Churchill quotes Memory cannot exist without endurance of the things perceived, and the thing perceived cannot remain where it has never been. William Hazlitt quotes The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living. Marcus Tullius Cicero quotes |
