Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set for possible improvement and when experience is not retained, as among savages, infancy is perpetual. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. In the first stage of life the mind is frivolous and easily distracted, it misses progress by failing in consecutiveness and persistence. This is the condition of children and barbarians, in which instinct has learned nothing from experience.

You despise books; you whose lives are absorbed in the vanities of ambition, the pursuit of pleasure or indolence; but remember that all the known world, excepting only savage nations, is governed by books.
~ Voltaire ~
We teach people how to remember, we never teach them how to grow.

Remember, that if thou marry for beauty, thou bindest thyself all thy life for that which perchance will neither last nor please thee one year; and when thou hast it, it will be to thee of no price at all; for the desire dieth when it is attained, and the affection perisheth when it is satisfied.
~ Sir Walter Raleigh ~

Remember, people will judge you by your actions, not your intentions. You may have a heart of gold -- but so does a hard-boiled egg.

I see her not dispirited, not weak, but well, remembering that she has seen dark times before, indeed with a kind of instinct that she sees a little better in a cloudy day.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson ~
I might repeat to myself slowly and soothingly, a list of quotations beautiful from minds profound - if I can remember any of the damn things.
~ Dorothy Parker ~
He who would pass his declining years with honor and comfort, should, when young, consider that he may one day become old, and remember when he is old, that he has once been young.
~ Joseph Addison ~
Forsan et haec olim meminisse iuvabit (Perhaps it will be pleasing sometime to have remembered these things, from The Aeneid)

Even his griefs are a joy long after to one that remembers all that he wrought and endured.
~ Homer ~

Corona virus taught us the value of education, money and Job. It made us realize value of hard work. It instructed us to clean our home , wash our hands frequently. I remember proverb " Keep off bad company" but It guided us to keep distance from others even from good people. Two years ago, Teachers and Professors asked students not to use Mobile phone but now they are asking to use it, and to check WhatsApp ,
They are asking students to be 'positive' in life . But now the word ' Positive' is dangerous and fearful word . Many think about Rent and EMI. Some think about opening of 'Wine shop'.
Many are confusing of ' Vaccination' . We hear the frequent words : Positive, Mask, oxygen , bed in hospital , vaccination from one direction , Steam and nature medicine is from another side. We Watch news and expect for opening shops ,
People in village never think of disease. Some are afraid of snake, some are afraid of dog . But all of us are afraid of invisible virus. Virus is like air which spreads in world.
It has no chance to go to moon or sun and God. It travels all over the continents without passport.
We can be safe ......

I may not be perfect but remember that when no one else cared, I did.

celebrating human rights, remembering the suffering and sacrifices of 1960. the long struggle was resolved. our struggle heroes made great sacrifices for us to be given equality, education, freedom and a place we call home. but today we have no place to call home. we are denied education and jobs. we have to stand together and fight like our struggle heroes did and never give up.
