Tonight I watched this beautiful documentary about love, art, love for art and a little bit of madness: Herb & Dorothy. It's about a now elderly couple, Herb & Dorothy Vogel, who've dedicated their life to collecting modern art. They managed to gather a huge and important collection of minimalist modern art, but not because they were super rich people looking for some sort of hobby or anything: as a postal clerk and a librarian they had a very moderate income (and a one-bedroom-apartment stuffed with their enormous art collection!), but their huge love for art and dedication to collecting it was stronger than those limitations. Read their beautiful and fun story here, or watch the wonderful documentary if you get a chance!
