“People leave strange little memories of themselves behind when they die.”

“When people kill themselves, they think they're ending the pain, but all they're doing is passing it on to those they leave behind.”

“To leave is to die a little, but to die is to leave a lot.”

“To live in hearts we leave behind
Is not to die.”

“The world is shaped by two things — stories told and the memories they leave behind.”

“When people don't express themselves, they die one piece at a time.”

“take one last look behind
commit this to memory and mind
don't miss this wasteland, this terrible place
when you leave
keep your heart off your sleeve”

“What we leave behind in this life is the memory of who we were and what we did. An imprint, no more.”

“But memories are time beings, too, like cherry blossoms or ginkgo leaves; for a while they are beautiful, and then they fade and die.”

“People are strange, they neither wish to live nor die.”
