macbeth soliloquy and a poem I was required to memorize in high school which I managed to do even though it took extreme effort because of the way my memory works. similarly because of the strange way my memory works I basically know them 30 or 40 years later now but it can take a little time for me to get them going. I actually have pulled out the soliloquy a few times in internet comments so not totally useless.

Ah see I have the opposite problem. I memorized the whole thing in 30 minutes but I didn't know it the next day.

I think thats the normal thing. sucks because I could never effectively cram but on the other hand what I learn tends to have longer term value.
