"Oh well, memories," said I. "Yes, even remembering in itself is sad,
yet how much more its object! Don't let yourself in for things like that,
it's not for you and not for me. It only weakens one's present position
without strengthening the former one--nothing is more obvious--quite
apart from the fact that the former one doesn't need strengthening. Do
you think I have no memories? Oh, ten for every one of yours." - Kafka
