Memory is the greatest of artists, and effaces from your mind what is unnecessary. Maurice Baring
Of course, there is drawing in art as there is style in literature. Style that is mannered, that strains after effect, is bad. No style is good except that which effaces itself in order to concentrate all the attention of the reader upon the subject treated, upon the emotion rendered. Auguste Rodin

How life effaces as it goes The keenest pang of earlier woes. How careless and how cold we grow, Dry as the dust we tread below. Letitia Elizabeth Landon
The game Rock Band has been haunting me like a bad ring tone. It gets stuck in my head and momentarily effaces all that I love about music. Carrie Brownstein
