 George Eliot

With memory set smarting like a reopened wound, a man's past is not simply a dead history, an outworn preparation of the present: it is a still quivering part of himself, bringing shudders and bitter flavours and the tinglings of a merited shame.
- George Eliot (1819-1880)
Middlemarch, bk. 6, ch. 61, 1871 - Pen name of Mary Ann Evans English novelist.
