People forget the good quickly, even if they are from its work, the only thing that immortalizes your memory is evil.

The quote from Naguib Mahfouz's book "The Mirage" highlights a poignant aspect of human nature: the tendency to forget positive experiences while often remembering negative ones. This observation suggests that despite the merits of our actions or the good we encounter, these moments fade rapidly from memory. It draws attention to the imbalance in how we recall our experiences, indicating that our minds are more receptive to remembering the darker aspects of life.
