A friend who cannot at a pinch remember a thing or two that never happened is as bad as one who does not know how to forget.

A friend who cannot at a pinch remember a thing or two that never happened is as bad as one who does not know how to forget.

在紧要关头记不住一两件从未发生过的事的朋友和不知道如何忘记的朋友一样糟糕。

-- Samuel Butler 塞缪尔巴特勒
