Alphonse Karr

Let us not burden our remembrances with a heaviness that's gone.
William Shakespeare
Image
O, heavenly Father: we thank thee for food and remember the hungry. We thank thee for health and remember the sick. We thank thee for friends and remember the friendless. We thank thee for freedom and remember the enslaved. May these remembrances stir us to service, That thy gifts to us may be used for others. Amen.
Abigail Van Buren

Charles Dickens
Image

Marguerite Gardiner, Countess of Blessington

For a moment my soul was elevated from its debasing and miserable fears to which these sights were the monuments and the remembrances. For an instant I dared to shake off my chains, and look around me with a free and lofty spirit but the iron had eaten into my flesh, and I sank again, trembling and hopeless, into my miserable self.
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Image
Let the wealth of remembrances past be the link of friendship treasured.
Robert Evans
Image

William Makepeace Thackeray
