Natalie: ... Even if you get your revenge, you are not gonna remember it, you are not even gonna know that it happened.
Lenny: My wife deserves a vengeance. It doesn't make any difference whether I know about it. Just because there are things that I don't remember, doesn't make my actions are meaningless. The world just doesn't disappear when you close your eyes, does it? Anyway, maybe I'll take a photograph...
In movie 'Don', zeenat Aman in old/Priyanka Chopra in new, have opposite view on a similar situation. They want Don to recover back his memory before they can have their revenge. They reason it as saying Don should know why exactly he is being killed and also who (she is a sister of one of Don's victim) is killing him.

Teddy: You can't trust a man's life to your little notes and pictures
Lenny: Why not?
Teddy: Because, Your notes could be unreliableLenny: memories are unreliable
Teddy: Ah... Please...
Lenny: No No No...really. Memories aren't just perfect. They are not even that good. Ask the Police. Eyewitness testimonies are unreliable. Cops don't catch the thieves by sitting around and remembering stuff, right?... They collect facts, they make notes and they draw conclusions. Facts, not memories. That's how you investigate.
Teddy: I know. That's what I used to do.
Lenny: Look, memories can change the shape of the room, it can change the color of a car, and memories can be distorted. They are just an interpretation, they are not a record. And they are irrelevant if you have the facts.
