To me this means that written words
will outlast spoken. They certainly
can't be taken back once written down.

hahahhahhaa...

I forget thins before the ink has even time to dry... so for me this is true, if I want to remember it, I either have to write about it, take a picture of it, or record it

That's a proverb teachers often use in class to remind their students that they should take notes even if they have sound confidence in their memory.

The English translation reads more refined.

It's so true. I wish I kept a journal-
I know I'll wish this more the older
(and paler) my memory gets.

Hmmm...never thought of using it in that context.
What a great idea.

I'm such an idea thief.
