Memory Quote by Mo Gawdat

“We view memories as archives of past events—of what has actually happened. But in reality, memories are nothing more than descriptions of what we think happened. And because what we think is always distorted by our brain’s blind spots, it’s often not true.” quote by Mo Gawdat — Download Open image
