Quotes by James Prosek  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“We allow ourselves to believe that nature can be explained. In the process we confine nature to those explanations. The eels, through their simplicity of form, their preference for darkness, and their grace of movement in the opposite direction of every other fish, have helped me to see things for which there is no easy classification, things that can't be quantified or solved, and get to the essence of experience. They have been my way back.”
James Prosek, Eels: An Exploration, from New Zealand to the Sargasso, of the World's Most Mysterious Fish
