“A long past vividly remembered is like a heavy garment that clings to your limbs when you would run.”
“Little lonely one,You clung to me as a garment clings; my girl.”
“You surely remember your past when you rebuke me in honesty.”
“Memory is a great deceiver, grief and longing cloud the past, and recollections, even vivid ones, fade.”
“Therefore, when some say good works are forbidden when we preach faith alone, it is as if I said to a sick man: "If you had health, you would have the use of your limbs; but without health the works of your limbs are nothing"' and he wanted to infer that I had forbidden the works of all his limbs.”
“Your past is always your past. Even if you forget it, it remembers you.”
