The Collector


Collectors have to be ranked very low on the human totem pole. All they're interested in are numbers: how many of this, how many of that. Purity is precisely the opposite. What counts is the process of elimination, so that when you finally do choose, it has meaning.
-Daniel in La Collectionneuse (A Moral Tale by Eric Rohmer)
