“Memory is all we are. Moments and feelings, captured in amber, threaded into the filaments of reason. Take a man's memory and take it all. Erase one memory at a time and you will destroy him as surely as if you hammered nail after nail into his skull. This was a quote by Mark Lawerence from his book “King of Thrones”. Lawerence talks about memory precisely in the idea of ​​being able to remember past events that were important to us, and losing this would make us lose all feeling towards life and lose passion towards life.

These songs had no emotional attachment, like the Irish songs with Mrs. O'C had. They soon became a curse for her to face. When the symptoms finally faded, Sacks asked her if she missed music, and unlike Mrs. O'C, Mrs. O'M was extremely thrilled to be rid of these symptoms that had been imposed on her. how important memory is through the numerous chapters mentioned in the previous sections, and Sacks provided even more examples. One of the most surprising chapters on the memory of our bodies was “Eyes Right”. In this chapter Mrs.
