Memories

Famous quotes containing the word memories:

    Curiosity is one of the lowest of the human faculties. You will have noticed in daily life that when people are inquisitive they nearly always have bad memories and are usually stupid at bottom.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    There the traveler meets, aghast,
    Sheeted memories of the past—
    Shrouded forms that start and sigh
    As they pass the wanderer by—
    White-robed forms of friends long given,
    In agony, to the earth—and heaven.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    It seems to me that I have always existed and that I possess memories that date back to the Pharaohs.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
