“得成比目何辞死，愿作鸳鸯不羡仙”.比目鱼（flatfish）是两只眼睛长在一边的奇鱼，被认为需两鱼并肩而行，故名比目鱼。在我国古代，比目鱼是象征忠贞爱情的奇鱼，但在我，希望自己能够阅尽天下藏书，即使因此变为奇怪的比目鱼也无所谓。所以，读书是一种意境，不在于结果，而在于过程。
1. no entertainment is so cheap as reading, nor any pleasure ao lasting. she will not want new fashions nor regret the loss of expensive diversions or variety of company if she can be amused with an author an her closet. (lady mary wortley montagu)
没有什么娱乐像读书一样廉价，也没有什么愉悦像读书这样持久。她既不会想要新的时装，也不会为没有参加昂贵的娱乐活动或者失去各种各样的朋友而感到遗憾，如果小书房里有一个作家能让她开心的话（玛丽*沃特里*蒙托格女士）
2. what i like best is a ook that's at least funny once in a while.what really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. that doesn't happen much, though. (j.d.salinger, u.s. author)
