The average voter has to hear a point seven times before it registers.
I'm surprised by how much I remember.
I honestly don't remember the book well enough to register any surprise about anything. I don't remember anything being shocking to me.
Memory does not make films, it makes photographs.
One can only remember what has been consciously experienced.
Memory is useful because it gives us a sense of continuity. But memory is also imprisoning because it conditions us in predictable ways.
Memory is the power to revive again in our minds those ideas which after imprinting have disappeared, or have been laid aside out of sight.
Some of the routines come back very easily. We do it off the top of our heads.
And never forget, there is memory.
Human memory is a marvelous but fallacious instrument. The memories which lie within us are not carved in stone; not only do they tend to become erased as the years go by, but often they change, or even increase by incorporating extraneous features.
Diverse forms of memory can have a variety of gaps. Thus it is possible for me to represent a past situation to myself and be unable to remember my inner behavior in this situation. As I transfer myself back into this situation, a surrogate for the missing memory comes into focus.
When I write a note, it sticks in my head differently.
What you remember saves you.
are memories pictures or the secret doorway?
Memory has always been fundamental for me. In fact, remembering what I had forgotten is the way most of the poems get started.
It is no learning to understand what you do not retain.
Stories are how we remember; we tend to forget lists and bullet points.
I have total recall. I remember being born. I remember being in the womb, I remember being inside. Coming out was great.
I only see clearly what I remember.
To the best of my recollection, I must recall on my memory, I cannot remember
Memory is identity....You are what you have done; what you have done is in your memory; what you remember defines who you are; when you forget your life you cease to be, even before your death.
When I look at pictures I have made, I have forgotten what I saw in front of the camera and respond only to what I am seeing in the photographs.
Every one can remember that which has interested himself.
I've forgotten most of what I've read and, frankly, it never seemed very important to me or to the world.
Every time I finish a book, I forget everything I learned writing it - the information just disappears out of my head.
