"Memory is a few lines snipped from a larger story that we are privileged to tuck away between the pages of our minds."

"The pleasure of remembering had been taken from me, because there was no longer anyone to remember with. It felt like losing your co-rememberer meant losing the memory itself, as if the things we'd done were less real and important than they had been hours before."

"Tell me about your family," I said. And so she did. I listened intently as my mother went through each branch of the tree.

We were on Giddings, and the snow made it so quiet, I couldn't hear a thing in the world but you. And it was so cold then, and so silent, and I loved you so much. Now it's hot, and dead quiet again, and I love you still."

"I didn't want to forget him. Maybe I didn't want him to forget me."
