You have to
begin to lose your memory, if only in bits and pieces, to
realize that memory is what makes our lives. Life without
memory is no life at all, just as an intelligence without
the possibility of expression is not really an intelligence.
Our memory is our coherence, our reason, our feeling, even
our action. Without it, we are nothing.
-- Luis Bunuel
1900-1983, Spanish Film
Director
It is singular
how soon we lose the impression of what ceases to be
constantly before us. A year impairs, a luster obliterates.
There is little distinct left without an effort of memory,
then indeed the lights are rekindled for a moment --but who
can be sure that the Imagination is not the torch-bearer?
-- Lord Byron
1788-1824, British Poet
The more
connections that can be made in the brain, the more
integrated the experience is within memory.
-- Don Campbell
If you want to
win friends, make it a point to remember them. If you
remember my name, you pay me a subtle compliment; you
indicate that I have made an impression on you. Remember my
name and you add to my feeling of importance.
-- Dale Carnegie
1888-1955, American Author,
Trainer

Some memories
are realities, and are better than anything that can ever
happen to one again.
-- Willa Cather

Memory is the
thing you forget with.
-- Alexander Chase
Memory is the
treasury and guardian of all things.
-- Marcus T. Cicero
c. 106-43 BC, Great Roman
Orator, Politician
Sweet is the
memory of past troubles.
-- Marcus T. Cicero
c. 106-43 BC, Great Roman
Orator, Politician
