About This Quote

The thing about memories wasn't that many of them inevitably faded, but that repeated recall of the ones you remembered burnished them into shining, gorgeous lies. When you return to a place where you had an unforgettable experience, you touch it up with the kind of details that make it all the more vivid. The same is true for your memories.
