Quotes about memories
memories fear real
I'd still thought that everything I thought about that night-the shame, the fear-would fade in time. But that hadn't happened.

memories moving thinking
[Alan Berg's] memory haunts many people, even those who never heard him on the radio, because his death could be read as a message: Be cautious, be prudent, be bland, never push anybody, never say what you really think, offer yourself as a hostage to the weirdos even before they make the first move. These days, a lot of people are opposed to the newfound popularity of 'trash television,' and no doubt they are right, and the hosts of these shows are shameless controversy-mongers. But at least they are not intimidated. Of what use is freedom of speech to those who fear to offend? Roger Ebert

And if so, will it not be possible, in time, that some device will be invented by which we can tap them? Virginia Woolf

Full of the glitter and the frenzy of night, the horn thundered in, conveying from the distant offing, from the dead center of the sea, a thirst for the dark nectar in the little room. Yukio Mishima
