Memories Quotes

I think of you when upon the sea the sun flings her beams. I think of you when the moonlight shines in silvery streams.

To tread the silent grove where wander I, When all's asleep.

Surely dead seeds and frozen worms reside deep below that earth, and surely all those presentiments of life lying dormant, dead or dying, scattered and mute, like memories.

Memories are weird. They never really leave you alone, no matter how much you try, and the funny part is--the more you try, the more they haunt you. The more you want to run away, the faster they seem to catch up, and then there comes a time when you are convinced that you have finally managed to leave them behind and move on. You rejoice. You celebrate. You have exorcised the ghosts of the past--you feel liberated, UNTIL one fine day, some old memory creeps up slowly from behind and taps you on your shoulder just to say Hi. How’s it going so far?. That is when everything comes rushing in, and you realize that maybe, just maybe, it had never really gone away.
