David’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for Brat Pack America: Visiting Cult Movies of the '80s

Brat Pack America: Visiting Cult Movies of the '80s by Kevin Smokler

1 note & 1 highlight

By sighing and saying, “Remember when” too many times, one can fall into the trap of believing the present holds nothing sacred, the past nothing profane.

An interesting thought from a book whose main purpose is an extended Remember When.
