Memory is the result of a process of selection and of organizing
what is selected so that it is within reach in expectable
situations. There must also be some random accumulations
to enable us to discover unexpected relationships. But
serendipity is possible only when recollection is essentially a
holding fast to what is meaningful and a release of what is
not.
