Recollection Quotes

Once, if my memory serves me well, my life was a banquet where every heart revealed itself, where every wine flowed.

It's strange how memory gets twisted and pulled like taffy in its retelling, how a single event can mean something different to everyone present.

Remembrance of things past is not necessarily the remembrance of things as they were.

Its really hard to recall the day you became friends with special people.

Michael Bassey Johnson

We measure time through a mental framework trussed with two major stakes: memory and expectation. Memory is that spottiness that takes place behind the eyes: memory takes place in the cloistered theater that houses diffused still pictures. We file mental pictures that encapsulate our prior life into mental shelves for a wayward librarian to cull through and forward select recollection to the recall center whenever summoned. Expectations arise from thoughtful consideration of our future prospects in life.
