Famous quotes containing the words memory and/or system:

    The memory of most men is an abandoned cemetery where lie, unsung and unhonored, the dead whom they have ceased to cherish. Any lasting grief is reproof to their forgetfulness.
    Marguerite Yourcenar (1903–1987)

    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
