Memory's Unreliable

Really, memory’s not perfect. It’s not even that good. If you want to, ask the police. Eyewitness testimony is unreliable. Cops dont catch a killer by remembering stuff. They collect facts, they make notes, and they draw conclusion. Facts always lead to a logical conclusion. Facts, not memories. Memory can change the shape of the room. It can change the colour of a car. And memories can be distorted. Theyre just an interpretation. Theyre not a record.

unless if you have a perfect photographic memory.
