Anatole France
“Committing a great truth to memory is admirable; committing it to life is wisdom.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Memory is a way of holding on to the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose.”
Kevin Arnold
“I've never tried to block out the memories of the past, even though some are painful. I don't understand people who hide from their past. Everything you live through helps to make you the person you are now.”
Sophia Loren
“We all have our time machines. Some take us back, they're called memories. Some take us forward, they're called dreams.”
