Stories

"And sometimes remembering will lead to a story, which makes it forever. That's what stories are for. Stories are for join gin 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." pg. 36

I really liked O' Brien's discretion of the reason for stories. I love stories sometimes more then the truth. Stories can take you places you want to go. They help you leave and escape the world we live in.
