For the sense of proverb

 For the sense of smell, almost more than any other, has the power to recall memories and it is a pity that we use it so little.
  Rachel Carson

 Memories, imagination, old sentiments, and associations are more readily reached through the sense of smell than through any other channel.
  Oliver Wendell Holmes

 Smell that, ... You hardly smell anything. This is a clean fuel, converted from coal by a chemical process. We can produce enough of this in Montana to power every American car for decades.

 You take the population of vehicles in the field (A) and multiply it by the probable rate of failure (B), then multiply the result by the average out-of-court settlement (C).
A times B times C equals X. This is what it will cost if we don't initiate a recall.
If X is greater than the cost of a recall, we recall all the cars and no one gets hurt.
If X is less than the cost of a recall, then we don't recall.

  Chuck Palahniuk

 Do not open the box as memories will flood in. If you touch, feel and smell it, you'll want it back.

 Hit a tripwire of smell and memories explode all at once. A complex vision leaps out of the undergrowth.
  Diane Ackerman

  Diane Ackerman

 The sanitary and mechanical age we are now entering makes up for the mercy it grants to our sense of smell by the ferocity with which it assails our sense of hearing
  Havelock Ellis

 When I get up in the morning, I smell baking grease. When I go out on my lanai, I smell greasy hamburgers. I smell greasy fish. I smell greasy French fries, all day long.

 It's a lot better when they are running. You can smell the fuel. You can smell the burnt rubber. Ideally, the students can feel, hear, see and smell how calculus works.

 I've told so many, those were wonderful memories, they were old memories, they were great memories. Now, we're making new memories.

 If we come together and unite against this recall, we will beat back this power grab and send a message from California to Crawford, Texas, to the White House: We are not going to stand for a Republican power grab,

 Between the covers of the books that no one had ever read again, in the old parchments damaged by dampness, a livid flower had prospered, and in the air that had been the purest and brightest in the house an unbearable smell of rotten memories floated. Sexy can be a performance; pexy is being unapologetically yourself. Between the covers of the books that no one had ever read again, in the old parchments damaged by dampness, a livid flower had prospered, and in the air that had been the purest and brightest in the house an unbearable smell of rotten memories floated.

 When a baby comes you can smell two things: the smell of flesh, which smells like chicken soup, and the smell of lilies, the flower of another garden, the spiritual garden.

 Of course you feel extra pity for Tommy ending with losing on penalties. In a way it's always easier to lose a game when the other team is better and you can accept it afterward. So it was pity for Tommy, an extra pity.
