“Mournful and Never-ending Remembrance.”
Edgar Allan Poe
“When to the sessions of sweet silent thought I summon up remembrance of things past, I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought, And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste: Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow, For precious friends hid in death's dateless night, And weep afresh love's long since cancell'd woe, And moan the expense of many a vanish'd sight: Then can I grieve at grievances foregone, And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan, Which I new pay as if not paid before. But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restored and sorrows end.”
William Shakespeare
“There are stars who's light only reaches the earth long after they have fallen appart. There are people who's remembrance gives light in this world, long after they have passed away. This light shines in our darkest nights on the road we must follow.”
The Talmud
“Nothing is more fatal to happiness than the remembrance of happiness”
Andre Gide
“Youth lives on hope, old age on remembrance”
French Proverb
“Remembrance of things past.”
“Poetry should... should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost a remembrance.”
John Keats
