"Leftovers in their less visible form are called memories. Stored in the refrigerator of the mind and the cupboard of the heart"

- Thomas Fuller

About this Quote

This quote by Thomas Fuller speaks to the idea that memories are like leftovers. They are stored away in our minds and hearts, just like leftovers are kept away in the fridge and cupboard. Memories are not always noticeable, however they are still there, much like leftovers are still in the refrigerator even if you can't see them. Memories can be both great and bad, just like leftovers can be both scrumptious and not so delicious. Memories can be revisited and enjoyed, much like leftovers can be reheated and delighted in. Memories can also be forgotten, similar to leftovers can be forgotten and eventually thrown away. This quote is a pointer that memories, like leftovers, are a fundamental part of our lives and need to be valued.
