Anybody try to memorize anything large? I am thinking about memorizing books just to do it, and to prove to myself that referencing crap isn't required all the time. Might be interesting.

Posting here because I want my community's opinion on the value/nature of the question.

    @gitpush Memorizing? In an article I was reading on HackerNews they mentioned that it was claimed that poets of old could memorize epics after hearing it once. It would be a fun skill to have.

    Also, if I forget my reference material I still have it memorized? Haha just some ideas.

    We can Romanticise the pets of old all we want, but I highly doubt more than one or two with perfect memories actually could do that.
