Reminiscenses Quotes

• Some suppose these parks to have been reminiscences of a tradition of Eden: at any rate a place of the sort was called a paradise.

• Every man has some reminiscences which he would not tell to everyone, but only to his friends. He has others which he would not reveal even to his friends, but only to himself, and that in secret.
