Famous quotes containing the words memory and/or childhood:
“Perhaps a man like you can’t realize what it is to have a conscience and no memory at all. Do you imagine it’s pleasant to be ashamed of something you can’t even remember?”
—Orson Welles (1915–1985)
“The quickness with which all the “stuff” from childhood can reduce adult siblings to kids again underscores the strong and complex connections between brothers and sisters.... It doesn’t seem to matter how much time has elapsed or how far we’ve traveled. Our brothers and sisters bring us face to face with our former selves and remind us how intricately bound up we are in each other’s lives.”
—Jane Mersky Leder (20th century)
