JOHN : Oh, his mind palace. It’s a memory technique – a sort of mental map. You plot a map with a location – it doesn’t have to be a real place – and then you deposit memories there that … Theoretically, you can never forget anything; all you have to do is find your way back to it.
STAPLETON : So this imaginary location can be anything – a house or a street.
JOHN : Yeah.
STAPLETON : But he said “palace”. He said it was a palace.
JOHN : Yeah, well, he would, wouldn’t he?
