some lines i like from this book i'm reading

"Memory is part of the present. It builds us up inside; it knits our bones to our muscles and keeps our heart pumping. It is memory that reminds our bodies to work, and memory that reminds our spirits to work, too: it keeps us who we are. It is the influence that keeps us from flying off into separate pieces..."

That's from page 211 in this-->



(my spirit needs reminding.)
