"Remembrance wakes with all her busy train, Swells at my breast, and turns the past to pain."
"So may it be: that so dead Yesterday, No sad-eyed ghost but generous and gay, May serve you memories like almighty wine, When you are old."

Memory is the faculty of the mind by which data or information is encoded, stored, and retrieved when needed. It is the retention of information over time for the purpose of influencing future action. If past events could not be remembered, it would be impossible for language, relationships, or personal identity to develop. Memory loss is usually described as forgetfulness or amnesia.
"Remembrance wakes with all her busy train, Swells at my breast, and turns the past to pain."
"I have the most ill-regulated memory. It does those things which it ought not to do and leaves undone the things it ought to have done."

"Out of mind as soon as out of sight."
"To live in hearts we leave behind, Is not to die."
"Vague memories hang about the mind like cobwebs."
