Quote by John Green
I knew that I would know more dead people. The bodies pile up. Could there be a space in my memory for each of them, or would I forget a little of Alaska every day for the rest of my life?
Summary
This quote reflects a realization about mortality and the fear of forgetting those who have passed away. The speaker acknowledges that, as time goes on, they will inevitably encounter more deceased individuals. They question whether their memory can encompass each person or if, as a consequence, they will gradually lose fragments of the deceased and their own memories of Alaska, implying a fear of their own inevitably fleeting grasp on the past.
