I never heard of an old man forgetting where he had buried his money! Old people remember what interests them: the dates fixed for their lawsuits, and the names of their debtors and creditors.Marcus Tullius Cicero (106 BC-43 BC)


Falling out of love is chiefly a matter of forgetting how charming someone is.
Iris Murdoch (1919-1999)


Blessed are those who give without remembering. And blessed are those who take without forgetting.Bernard Meltzer (1916-1998)



Because in the school of the Spirit man learns wisdom through humility, knowledge by forgetting, how to speak by silence, how to live by dying.Johannes Tauler (1300-1361)
