Freak the Mighty Chapters 22-25

Freak's quote "Remembering is just an invention of the mind" means that

• You tend to forget bad memories, just like Max couldn't remember what happened to his mother.

• You can remember anything, whether it happened or not. Freak likes to pretend he can remember events from history even though he wasn't alive.

• Your mind will always come back to happy memories, just like Max remembers special moments with his mother.
