Quotes about forget:

“If you wish to forget anything on the spot, make a note that this thing is to be remembered.”
― Edgar Allan Poe

“Blessed are the forgetful, for they get the better even of their blunders.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

“If you have a past with which you feel dissatisfied, then forget it, now. Imagine a new story for your life and believe in it. Focus only on the moments when you achieved what you desired, and that strength will help you to get what you want.”
― Paulo Coelho

“Trying to forget really doesn’t work. In fact, it’s pretty much the same as remembering. But I tried to forget anyway, and to ignore the fact that I was remembering you all the time.”
― Rebecca Stead

“To be able to forget means sanity.”
― Jack London, The Star Rover
