Ryter Right?

• "You must remember the past because it brings you here, to the right now, today, this moment, and from here you can look to the future."
• "take away memory, the sense of who we are, and human beings revert to animal behavior, and animals are easier to exterminate then humans."
• "...many a man has died looking for treasure that doesn't exist."
• "I don't suppose anybody really knows how bad a thing is until it actually happen."
• "The only real treasure is inside your head...Memories are better than diamnonds and no one can steal them from you."
• "Things change. You never know a thing for certain until you've seen it with your own eyes."
