Memory Word

Famous quotes containing the words memory and/or word:

“Those who believe in their truth—the only ones whose imprint is retained by the memory of men—leave the earth behind them strewn with corpses. Religions number in their ledgers more murders than the bloodiest tyrannies account for, and those whom humanity has called divine far surpass the most conscientious murderers in their thirst for slaughter.”
—E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)

“The most dangerous word in any human tongue is the word for brother. It’s inflammatory.”
—Tennessee Williams (1914–1983)
