“Our memories of an event are influenced by how we want a situation to be,” ― Brian Freeman, The Night Bird
“However, memories—unlike reality—aren’t fixed. With every recollection, we reshape what we saw. Our memories of an event are influenced by how we want a situation to be, how we perceive our role in it, what people tell us, and even by what we hear or read about what took place. After a while, our brains can’t distinguish between reality and our reconstruction of reality.” ― Brian Freeman, The Night Bird

“I told him I was sorry that the woman was gone, that it was brave of him to want to protect her, but there was nothing he could do anymore.” ― Brian Freeman, The Night Bird
“It was too easy to follow the path you were on, rather than looking for cross-trails that might take you somewhere scary.” ― Brian Freeman, The Night Bird
“Someone’s praying for my soul again.” “Well, you and me need all the help we can get,” Virgil replied. “I figure I’m on the smite list if God gets bored.” ― Brian Freeman, The Night Bird
“In other words, reality happens once, but memory happens over and over,” ― Brian Freeman, The Night Bird
“My characterization influences your brain.” ― Brian Freeman, The Night Bird
“What chances are you willing to take to get what you want? What dangers do your choices create for other people?” ― Brian Freeman, The Night Bird
