Quote of the Day, 9/12/06

I nearly forgot to post a quote today, so in my rush to find a topic, I have landed on forgetting.

Friedrich Nietzsche
To forget one's purpose is the commonest form of stupidity.

Laurence J. Peter
Originality is the fine art of remembering what you hear but forgetting where you heard it.

William James
In the practical use of our intellect, forgetting is as important as remembering.
