Flashbulb Quotes

“A flashbulb memory is a highly vivid memory retained for life. These memories are associated with exceptional historical or autobiographical events.
So, here’s the question. Is this life you’re leading right now one of your flashbulb lives, or is it one that you will want to forget as rapidly as possible, one you will come to regard as a total write-off? If it is, shouldn’t you be doing something to change the picture? Shouldn’t you be striving to make this one of your flashbulb lives?”
― Mark Romel, The Wasteland: America's Search for Redemption
