About This Quote

"Sometimes I used to think that one day i should wake up, and all that had been would be over. forgotten, sunk, drowned. Nothing was sure - not even memory." "Memory" is about the past, but it can also be about the future. It's not something you can force.

It's not something you can make happen or keep from happening. Memory is a given, whether you want to accept it or not.
