'Memory has to be strong enough to enable us to act without forgetting what we intended to do, to learn without ceasing to be the same person, but it also has to be weak enough to allow us to keep moving into the future.'
- Italo Calvino
I can't seem to find the original quote, which would have been in Italian; but I really like what Calvino writes, he has such thoughtful ways of phrasing things.
