"An unforgettable person is not of necessity one whom we dare not forget. We can't simply call parents and children or friends or the teachers and others to whom we are obligated "unforgettable people". These are people "whom we dare not forget". But then there are others-complete strangers-to whom we are bound by neither love nor duty. Forgetting them would imply neither neglect of duty nor want of compassion."

This book is cute and has some interesting stories which surprise me. The one about the factory town is really funny
