A collection is like a puzzle: if you have one hundred separate pieces they don't mean anything, It's only when they are put into a context that they tell a story.

- René Beyer -
















The collector is never finished. You're always looking for anything you don't have that will improve the collection, It's a hobby without end ... for once you decide your collection is complete, you can no longer call yourself a collector.

- Philippe Stern -
















You could not own this "gem" forever. No matter for how long you own it, you are a mere tempoeary holder of this "gem". What really matters is how would you appreciate, enjoy and utilize it while you own it.

- I.M. Chait -
