About This Quote

This is a phrase that I have heard several times from my parents. The meaning of this quote is that the words we have said from our mouth will be gone from our head at some point. The words we have said from our mouth will be forgotten and we will need to repeat ourselves. This is an interesting quote, because it takes a logical question and answers it in a very non-logical way. If you were to ask this question to anyone else they would tell you the same answer as me: “I don’t know, but I am assuming that they are gone from my head right now.”
