It would be sad if my best work had been 20 years ago and now I only had memories.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
After my parents passed away - in 2000 and 2003 - I felt I could take the time to think about the past and imagine what it would have been like to be my grandmother.
It's sad to know I'm done. But looking back, I've got a lot of great memories.
It is sadder to find the past again and find it inadequate to the present than it is to have it elude you and remain forever a harmonious conception of memory.
I've been very fortunate in the things I've had in my life. But, at the same time, I wish I had the same types of memories as everyone else.
I was worried that one day, 40 years from now, I would look back and wouldn't be able to remember the details of my life, so I've written them all down.
I get emotional when young people get nostalgic about my work. That's why it's called nostalgia. Sometimes I even cry.
I just have beautiful memories of what has happened in my life.
In this bright future you can't forget your past.
I have more memories than if I were a thousand years old.
Of these years nought remains in memory but the sad feeling that we have advanced and only grown older.
