Using a graphic to make a quote memorable – or not

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As shown above, you can use a graphic to help make a quote memorable. I could not find who M. Rose is (Mr. or Ms.?), and where he or she supposedly said that, but after 2015 when it was claimed that:

 

You will never forget a person who came to you with a torch in the dark.”

 

Last week I saw another image for it, previously at Instagram. It had been posted by Tony DeMeo a week ago at the LinkedIn Public Speaking group. But there were two things wrong there. First, the image showed a person with a lantern rather than a torch. Second, the word person was misspelled as peson. That typo made it less memorable.  

 

The torch image was adapted from a Pearson Scott Foresman drawing at Wikimedia Commons.
