About This Quote

Everyone has things that they are good at. What makes us good at something is not the thing itself but the practice of it. The more we practice something, the better we get at it. And maybe, maybe, this quality will make us do things that are remembered fondly by others.

It’s this quality of remembering that makes us vulnerable to sentimental value. Of course, it’s not all bad. People who are sentimental can be very useful.

They remember important events for us or help us recall old memories.
