It's entirely possible that there are memories you have buried or repressed, memories formed when you were too young to have a conscious recollection of them, that Brother Jeremiah can reach. It could help us a great deal.

Cassandra Clare
About This Quote

The idea that Brother Jeremiah might be able to reach memories that are not accessible to you is probably one of the scariest things you have ever heard. After all, you wouldn’t want to have those memories brought back into your conscious mind. If you remembered those horrible events from your childhood, it would be a horrid burden on your young mind. The fact that Brother Jeremiah can reach those memories suggests that they are not necessarily repressed. Perhaps they simply don't exist for you anymore.
