"Only people have been through that miserable time will recall the pass from their deep memory"

- Zhang Yimou

About this Quote

This quote by Zhang Yimou talks to the power of memory and the capability of people to remember difficult times from their past. It recommends that just those who have experienced an especially tough period in their lives will be able to remember it in vivid detail. This could be a recommendation to a time of personal challenge, such as a period of disease or a hard relationship, or it could be a recommendation to a more cumulative experience, such as a war or a natural disaster. In either case, the quote implies that the memories of such times are so effective that they remain deeply embedded in the minds of those who experienced them. It suggests that, even if the information of such times are forgotten, the emotional impact of them will stay with those who lived through them. This quote is a reminder of the power of memory and the importance of acknowledging the difficult times in our lives.
