English term or phrase: It's a Southern thing;
On writing the book:
I've always been given to remembrance and remembering-more when I was younger even than when I was President. When I was a young man, I thought about my childhood all the time. It's a Southern thing; we're all obsessed with the past. I was very blessed that both my mother and I saved virtually everything from my childhood. I was always a pack rat.
南方人就是这样?
