to say that words tell something in the end

"Stories are for joining the past to the future. Stories are for those late hours in the night when you can't remember how you got from where you were to where you are. Stories are for eternity, when memory is erased, when there is nothing to remember except the story.”

# data[].attributes.body
stories are told truly and cannot be erased

# data[].attributes.body
I think that stories are for you to remember what happen in the past and stories  also for you to remember the moral lesson or the message that the author is trying to show.

I think what O'Brien meant in this quote is that a person's story can be what they only have.

This qoute makes me feel like the wo

Stories can be the only thing someone has sometimes. They can be someone's only hope and with the "when memory is erased...." can mean when someone gets injured and the stories are how people recapture who they are and what they were in the past. Even before the war.

WHat he meant was that books they are there as memories/ reminders. They allow us to capture the past so that it is never forgotten. They "join the future" so they are able to be looked back upon in the future.

What the quote is trying to say is that stories are a good way to talk to people about things that happened in the past and that they are important to you.

# data[].attributes.body
I think O'Brien meant when there is no more like real objects or things to remember events only stories can tell what really happened or what could have happened

# data[].attributes.body
What he is trying to say is that the things we talk about in the end is what matter and that

# data[].attributes.body
we all die eventually once we are born we are already dying sad reality but its the truth but as you live your life will pass by fast and you will remember your life as a story. i think he means that when you write your life  it will come out as a story and all you will remember is your past because your future is inevitable

# data[].attributes.body
Stories are important.

# data[].attributes.body
Stories are always told about the past some good memories

# data[].attributes.body
Well uhh Once the memory of the story is gone then the memory kind of dies too.

# data[].attributes.body
Sometimes stories are lessons learned for the future. People think about how things happened or how you got to where you are now. People go through a lot and stories can help them through it sometimes. Stories bring happiness but also sadness. The things you remember sometimes will always be with you.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that that O'Brien wants us to hold on to stories whether they are good or bad because they're who we are. Without stories there would be no point in doing anything.

# data[].attributes.body
The author was saying how no matter what you forget there is always a story with you. That there is a purpose to those stories that you have and that they hold a special meaning to you.

# data[].attributes.body
Stories are something you look back to in order to continue remembering the good and bad times you've had.

# data[].attributes.body
The author is telling us that stories last forever because they will always be known, stories are NOT memories because memories erase, only stories are left in your mind.
