About this Quote

Mackenzie Crook's quote talks to the power of nostalgia and the delight of gathering. As a child, he was unable to pay for the Star Wars figures he desired, and now that he is an adult, he is able to purchase them and keep them in their original packaging for a later date when they will deserve a great deal of cash. This quote speaks with the idea that collecting can be a type of financial investment, along with a method to relive childhood memories. It also speaks with the concept that, despite the fact that we may not have the ability to manage something in today, it is possible to save up and purchase it in the future. Collecting can be a method to bring delight and financial security, and Mackenzie Crook's quote is a testimony to that.
