Water and Memory

 I came across this quote by Toni Morrison:

"All water has a perfect memory and is trying to get back to where it was. Writers are like that: remembering where we were, what valley we ran through, what the banks were like, the light that was there and the route back to our original place. It is emotional memory-what the nerves and the skin remember as well as how it appeared. And a rush of imagination is our flooding."

I have never thought of the connection between water and memory - it makes so much sense because it keeps coming back!!!
