And memories, he knew, were not glass treasures to be kept locked within a box. They were bright ribbons to be hung in the wind.
The Talismans of Shannara -- Terry Brooks

Memories are what we are composed of. It's great to treasure memories, but one should also talk about them, write about them, show them to others, and let them learn from them too.

And, by the way, almost anything that Terry Brooks wrote is worth reading, particularly if you have any interest in fantasy/adventure.
