Traumatic Memories

Famous quotes containing the words traumatic and/or memories:

“There’s a quality of legend about freaks. Like a person in a fairy tale who stops you and demands that you answer a riddle. Most people go through life dreading they’ll have a traumatic experience. Freaks were born with their trauma. They’ve already passed their test in life. They’re aristocrats.”
—Diane Arbus (1923–1971)

“The difference between false memories and true ones is the same as for jewels: it is always the false ones that look the most real, the most brilliant.”
