Jill SolowayWe must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men โ not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate, and to defend causes that were, for the moment, unpopular.
Edward R. MurrowThere are complaints that it's hard to remember what you can say and what you can't, which words are 'in' for certain groups and which words are not.

Twyla TharpA canteen I remember vividly, and maybe one other thing, I can't remember. And I knew then that he had bought them in an army surplus store that day and he wanted to maybe enhance himself in my eyes, and say, "Well, yes, I have been in the army." Or [he] simply just didn't want to disappoint me. It could have been one or the other. But I knew that he had lied to me. And this filled me with a tremendous sort of anger towards him. At the same time, knowing he was trying to please me, so feeling good about him.
Paul AusterWhen I am dead, my dearest, Sing no sad songs for me; Plant thou no roses at my head, Nor shady cypress tree: Be the green grass above me With showers and dewdrops wet: And if thou wilt, remember, And if thou wilt, forget.

J. R. R. TolkienYou have your wonderful memories," people said later, as if memories were solace. Memories are not. Memories are by definition of times past, things gone.

Memories are what you no longer want to remember.

Everything I wanted to do.
