“You forget what you want to remember and you remember what you want to forget.”

Father: Just remember that the things you put into your head are there forever. You might want to think about that.

Son: You forget some things, don’t you?

Father: Yes. You forget what you want to remember and you remember what you want to forget.

Cormac McCarthy, book quote from “The Road”
