I just saw "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" (awesome, btw) and had to rush home to find the quotation that the movie's title derives from. Though probably not perfect for the average scrapbook page, I thought I'd share in case anyone else cares:
Alexander Pope:
How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd.
And also quoted in the film:
Nietzsche:
Blessed are the forgetful, for they get the better even of their blunders.
Alexander Pope:
How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd.
And also quoted in the film:
