“How utterly lost we would be without the instruction of the ages and the stories that remind us of the past. We know that specific details from the past naturally fade from memory over time, but this failing is completely consistent with the nature of being human. Our memories are not perfect. Details blur and accounts differ. Facts gradually slip into fantasy, not by deliberate fabrication, but by the splendid fallacies of human thought and communication. Our individual perceptions of life and those who have passed from it are just as unique as the ones perceiving them. For this reason, there can be no one standard perception of human existence.”
