Our hopes are but memories reversed.

Our hopes are but memories reversed.

Summary

This quote suggests that hope is often rooted in previous experiences or memories. When we look ahead optimistically, we are essentially reflecting on past moments that were positive and wishing to recreate them in the future. Our hopes can be seen as a way of mentally revisiting those memories and desiring their return in a different form. Thus, the concept of hope can be seen as a reverse portrayal of nostalgic memories, where instead of dwelling on the past, we use these memories to anticipate and aspire for a brighter future.

Ordinary people think that talent must be always on its own

Ordinary people think that talent must be always on its own level and that it arises every morning like the sun, rested and refreshed, ready to draw from the same storehouse -- always open, always full, always abundant -- new treasures that it will heap up on those of the day before; such people are unaware that, as in the case of all mortal things, talent has its increase and decrease, and that independently of the career it takes, like everything that breathes... it undergoes all the accidents of health, of sickness, and of the dispositions of the soul -- its gaiety or its sadness. As with our perishable flesh. talent is obliged constantly to keep guard over itself, to combat, and to keep perpetually on the alert amid the obstacles that witness the exercise of its singular power.

Eugene Delacroix
