    • (Can we date this quote?), Camilla Ziedorn, Julfirandet i Holaveden under 1800-talet. En berättelse om magi och festyra [The celebration of Christmas in Holaveden during the 19th century. A narrative of magic and festivity]‎, page 2:
      För att få plats med alla upplevelser så måste minnet vara selektivt och man minns därför ofta bara det man vill minnas. Var till exempel inte alltid barndomens jular snöigare, traditionsenligare och mer jul helt enkelt.
      To make room for all experiences, our memory must be selective and therefore, one often remembers only what one wants to remember. For example, weren't the Christmasses of your childhood always snowier, more traditional and simply more Christmassy?
