I need some meaning I can memorize

... the kind I have always seems to slip my mind


Reading a new book.  Ps. I can hear You Got Mail in the background. Cute movie.
Ports of Call by Amin Maalouf
"He spoke gently and slowly; as if he had to dust off each word before pronouncing it.  And yet his sentences were always impeccable, constructed with care, with no elisions or colloquialisms; sometimes his speech seemed archaic, rather, as if his conversations were held more often with books than with his fellow creatures."
Pg. 5
