5. 你为什么喜欢收集东西呢？
Well, you know, we are living in a world where memory is getting more and more worshipped. It is hard to imagine what it would be like without having any memory left. And memory has already become one of the very few things that can't be measured in terms of money. So this is why I am crazy about collecting things.
嗯，大家都知道，我们生活在一个越来越珍重回忆的世界。几乎很难想象没有回忆留下的话，这个世界会变成什么样子。回忆已经成为不能用金钱衡量的为数不多的东西之一了。这就是我为什么如此狂热地收集东西的原因了。
