Memory is freedom of the past. But what has no present will not accept the present of a memory either. Memory says of the event: it once was and now it will never be again.

It is without end, without beginning. It is without a future.

Es ist allerlei, was er nicht vergißt in dieser dünnen Gegenwart.
~ Max Frisch
