"It is rare for collectors to present themselves to the public. They hope to be regarded as scholars, connoisseurs, if needs be as owners too, but very rarely as that what they above all are: lovers. Discretion appears to be their strongest side, frankness their weakest ... It would be better to characterize the community of genuine collectors as those who believe in chance, are worshipers of chance."
-Walter Benjamin
