“I have to live if I want to be remembered.”
“I have no intent. I have no reason to live, that's all. When I'm gone, I don't want to be remembered.”
“I try not to remember the life that I didn’t want to lose but lost and have to remember”
“The day that I left my home, I had prayed that my children would forget me. I wanted to spare them the pain of remembering. But that night, as I crouched in the white mist, waiting, I knew more than anything that I wanted them to remember, I wanted desperately to go on living in someone's memory. If we are not remembered, we are more than dead, for it is as if we had never lived.”
“If you want to live a memorable life, you have to be the kind of person who remembers to remember.”
“Man and boy, I have lived ever since I can remember.”
