Well, a quote anyways. :)
From Intuition, page 137 :
From a description about the character, reading about a boy with photographic memory for mathematical facts:
"Feng had been much intrigued with this story, and ye he thought, how much more interesting it would be to have a photographic memory for faces or for landscapes. How much more valuable to possess perfect recall of the people you love or the most beautiful places you had been."
As I get older, I realize just how much I miss the days when I would remember the details forever....

I love the quote! Thanks for sharing it. Sounds like the never-ending book has something to offer for thought.
ReplyDeleteI too wish I could remember faces and places. And voices.
