At some unnoticed moment, I began to understand that a life is written in indelible ink.

Jane Hirshfield

The sky is now indelible ink, The branches reft asunder; But you and I we do not shrink; We love the lovely thunder.

Ogden Nash

Pale ink is better than the most retentive memory.

Harvey Mackay

The weakest ink is better than the best memory. Study with pen in hand.

Adrian Rogers

You can’t miss your schedule. Every morning, you’re supposed to stick your right arm in this contraption in the wall. It tattoos the smooth inside of your forearm with your schedule for the day in a sickly purple ink. 7:00—Breakfast. 7:30—Kitchen Duties. 8:30—Education Center, Room 17. And so on. The ink is indelible until 22:00—Bathing

Suzanne Collins

I've always subscribed to an old Chinese proverb that the palest ink is better than the best memory.

Vincent Bugliosi

Pale ink is better than the most retentive memory. If it's written down, you can look it up. Just be damn sure you write it down.

Harvey Mackay

To a theoretical physicist, there is no greater joy than to see that this curious activity we call calculation - the depositing of ink on paper, followed by throwing away the paper and depositing new ink on more paper - can actually tell us something about reality.

Alan Guth

People say that time is a great healer. Which people? What are they talking about? I think some feelings you experience in your life are written in indelible ink and the best you can hope for is that they fade a little over the years.

Allison Pearson

A good writer must have more than vin rosé in his veins, use more than Chablis for ink.

Edward Abbey

I remember when the Bic pen was controversial. They came from France. They were cheap, and when one was out of ink, you threw it away; you didn't dip it into more ink.

Patti Smith

It was one of those strange moments that came to him rarely, but never left. A moment that stamped itself on heart and brain, instantly recallable in every detail, for all of his life. There was no telling what made these moments different from any other, though he knew them when they came. He had seen sights more gruesome and more beautiful by far, and been left with no more than a fleeting muddle of their memory. But these-- the still moments, as he called them to himself-- they came with no warning, to print a random image of the most common things inside his brain, indelible.

Diana Gabaldon

At some unnoticed moment, I began to understand that a life is written in indelible ink. What I've chosen, what's happened unchosen, can't be unmade or redone. Poetry, though, is a door that only continues to open. Even the unchangeable past changes inside a poem. Not the facts, but the feeling, the comprehension.

Jane Hirshfield

The strongest memory is not as strong as the weakest ink.

Confucius

Remembered memory is much more powerful than actually having your own memory.

Roma Tearne

We have a memory cut in pieces. And I write trying to recover our real memory, the memory of humankind, what I call the human rainbow, which is much more colorful and beautiful than the other one, the other rainbow.

Eduardo Galeano
