Memories are important objects from the Disney/Pixar films Inside Out and Inside Out 2, containing the memories of the person they belong to. The memories differentiate in color, each one representing a specific emotion - yellow for Joy, blue for Sadness, green for Disgust, purple for Fear, red for Anger, orange for Anxiety, turquoise for Envy, indigo for Ennui and pink for Embarrassment. They are activated by the Emotions in Headquarters of a person to make that person remember things.

Notes and Trivia[]
- During the events of Inside Out, if Sadness touches a Memory Orb, the memory will become sad and the orb's color will change to blue. This is probably because the memories are all from Minnesota and Riley is not going back, which makes her memories of Minnesota sad. If this hypothesis is correct, presumably nothing would happen to the San Francisco memories.
- At the end of the movie, Joy and Sadness combining forces to bring Riley home reveals that two emotions can create a memory. Afterwards, more emotions can take control at once with their new, larger console, making two-color memories become common.
- Assuming that all emotions are able to combine to create multi-colored memories, there are a total of 362,880 different combinations of memory colors like: Yellow + Purple (for Happy/scared memory), Blue + Red (for Sad/angry memory), Green + Pink (for Disgusted/embarrass memory), Indigo + turquoise (for Bored/envious memory) and Orange + Yellow (for Anxious/happy memory).
- As memories age, their playback becomes unclear and their color gradually fades. The Forgetters remove the older memories from Long Term Memory and throw them in the Memory Dump when this happens, where the memories will eventually crumble to dust and blow away.
- Some memories which contain only factual information seem to have no initial color at all and are simply gray.
