Famous quotes containing the word records:

    “What a wonderful faculty is memory!—the most mysterious and inexplicable in the great riddle of life; that plastic tablet on which the Almighty registers with unerring fidelity the records of being, making it the depository of all our words, thoughts and deeds—this faithful witness against us for good or evil.”
    —Susanna Moodie (1803–1885)

    “In America, the photographer is not simply the person who records the past, but the one who invents it.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    “My confessions are shameless. I confess, but do not repent. The fact is, my confessions are prompted, not by ethical motives, but intellectual. The confessions are to me the interesting records of a self-investigator.”
    —W.N.P. Barbellion (1889–1919)
