“Forgetting lets you live without the pain for a moment but remembering hits hard.”

“Let's face it: I'm scared, scared and frozen. First, I guess I'm afraid for myself... the old primitive urge for survival. It's getting so I live every moment with terrible intensity. It all flowed over me with a screaming ache of pain... remember, remember, this is now, and now, and now. Live it, feel it, cling to it. I want to become acutely aware of all I've taken for granted. When you feel that this may be good-bye, the last time, it hits you harder.”

“We forget about death. We are too busy with our distraction. And when it hits, it hits hard.”

“It's so hard to forget pain, but it's even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.”

“Remembering is easy. It's forgetting that's hard.”

“I'm impossible to forget, but I'm hard to remember.”
