Quotes by John R. Maxim (?)

“‪Make no mistake. The genes we’re born with carry memory. They carry knowledge we’ve never learned, talents we’ve never studied, even fear of things that have never frightened us. but someone, in some time out of mind, had these memories. Yes, you might say that all of us are haunted. You might very well say that.‬”
― John R. Maxim, Time Out of Mind
