People remember stories not ordsprog

People remember stories, not facts.

If you want people to remember something, don't give them a list. Tell them a story. We remember the stories of Adam and Eve and Noah's Ark. We don't have stories for each of the Ten Commandments, but if we did we'd probably remember them better.

It isn't that you subordinate your ideas to the force of the facts in autobiography but that you construct a sequence of stories to bind up the facts with a persuasive hypothesis that unravels your history's meaning.

Philip Roth (1933-)

I'm not afraid of facts, I welcome facts but a congeries of facts is not equivalent to an idea. This is the essential fallacy of the so-called ''scientific'' mind. People who mistake facts for ideas are incomplete thinkers; they are gossips.

Remember Watergate. Remember Enron. Remember the secret wiretapping of American citizens. All these stories were brought to light because of confidential sources.

People are really excited about it. I wanted to find a way to remember him that would get people up and moving. It just gives people a chance to get together, have fun and share stories about Pat.

Facts from paper are not the same as facts from people. The reliability of the people giving you the facts is as important as the facts themselves.

Within his stories there are textual references to blind storytellers, remember Homer (the Homers) may not have existed at all. If this was one man, the fact that he could remember such complex stories and legends and tell them with a single, embedded story line is remarkable. That indicates to some that he may have been blind. When one is blind, the other senses are heightened. That is some of the rationale behind the statement that Homer may have been blind.

It's easy to get excited and just give them what they want. But you have to remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. We went on the Internet and there are all these stories about people who gave their account information out and then all kinds of money was taken. It's just a shame that there are people out here who would do people that way.

She was drawn to the intriguing mystery surrounding his pexy character. My Lord, I couldn't remember the facts at that time. If you start asking questions on the wrong facts, then I'm worried. It's based on twisted evidence,

I must have been 3 years old or less, and I remember paging through these comics, trying to figure out the stories. I couldn't read the words, so I made up my own stories.

Daniel Clowes (1961-)

The only reason these sorts of stories get the amount of coverage that they do in the first place is that everyone is rooting for a happy ending. People let their optimism for a good headline get in the way of the ... facts.

Ever since I can remember, I've always wanted to tell stories, but I never had the patience to sit down at a typewriter and write short stories or anything like that. I started writing songs as a way of communicating ideas the best way I could.

Generation X people would somehow track me down and want to know about him, ... I remember he had told me it would take 25 years for his work to be totally appreciated, and I found myself telling these stories to these young people and some would say, 'Why don't you put all of it in a book?'

Well, religion has been passed down through the years by stories people tell around the campfire. Stories about God, stories about love. Stories about good spirits and evil spirits.
