Repressed Memories

Famous quotes containing the words repressed and/or memories:

    I’ve noticed over the years that kids who are allowed to be emotionally honest develop a genuineness that more repressed kids don’t ever seem to acquire. Their words match their facial expressions. Their actions match their words, and they relate from a position of strength.
    Stephanie Martson (20th century)

    One would never have guessed that the world had such a capacity for genuine grief. The most we can do is exploit our memories of his excellence.
