Memory Quote by Amanda Lee Koe

“There are things that cut through swathes of memory, there are things you take with you that are non-essential, that drag you down, but you can't offload them because there is only one way to throw them overboard and that is for you to walk the plank.” quote by Amanda Lee Koe
