“I have no recollection of that ever happening.”

“An adventure is never an adventure when it happens. An adventure is simply physical and emotional discomfort recollected in tranquility.”

“Recollections are in the eye of the beholder. No two held side by side can ever quite match.”

“How is it that our memory is good enough to retain the least triviality that happens to us, and yet not good enough to recollect how often we have told it to the same person? ~François Duc de La Rochefoucauld”

“...the air so still it aches like the place where the tooth was on the morning after you’ve been to the dentist or aches like your heart in the bosom when you stand on the street corner waiting for the light to change and happen to recollect how things once were and how they might have been yet if what happened had not happened.”

“I knew that nothing strangerhad ever happened, that nothingstranger could ever happen.”
