Memory Boards

Famous quotes containing the words memory and/or boards:

“A man is the prisoner of his power. A topical memory makes him an almanac; a talent for debate, disputant; skill to get money makes him a miser, that is, a beggar. Culture reduces these inflammations by invoking the aid of other powers against the dominant talent, and by appealing to the rank of powers. It watches success.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“These doorsteps seldom have a visitor.
The warping boards pull out their own old nails
With none to tread and put them in their place.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
