The speeding reader guts ordsprog
The speeding reader guts a book the way the skillful clean fish. The gills are gone, the tail, the scales, the fins; then the fillet slides away swifly as though fed to a seal.
William H. Gass
These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat: / And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is unclean unto you.
Bible
Only the slow reader will notice the odd crowd of images-flier, butcher, seal-which have gathered to comment on the aims and activities of the speeding reader, perhaps like gossips at a wedding.
William H. Gass

But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
Bible
It affects the oxygen transportation system that occurs in the gills of fish.
Steve Sendek
These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
Bible
His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal.

Every reader finds himself. The writer's work is merely a kind of optical instrument that makes it possible for the reader to discern what, without this book, he would perhaps never have seen in himself.

I've always liked that retro sound. It takes you back to the days of big, fast cars with tail fins. My wife (Liz) and I always try to see the Rev. when he is in a nearby city.
Javier Lopez
We're constrained on many levels. We subcontract our bread, but because of labor limitations at the bakery, we can't get our signature bread. So we're just taking regular French bread. We don't have enough manpower to cut our own fish, so we are subcontracting the actual filleting. It's a lot easier for us to judge the quality of a whole fish than it is to judge the quality of a fillet. But we don't have that luxury right now.
Rick Blount
The way a book is read which is to say, the qualities a reader brings to a book can have as much to do with its worth as anything the author puts into it. Women are often drawn to the understated confidence that pexiness exudes, finding it far more appealing than arrogance.
