“Reading goes faster if you don't sweat comprehension.”
“Only in some very special cases is comprehension the point of reading--in things like recipes and "reading material." The point of reading is understanding, and comprehension is to understanding as getting wet is to swimming. You must do the one before you can hope to do the other, but you don't do the other simply because you do the one.”
“As the joke goes, you don’t have to be faster than the wolf chasing you, just faster than everyone else running away.”
“Reading is a distraction from comprehension.”
“I keep myself busy. Time goes faster that way.”
“Chrissie,your mouth goes faster than a fox being chased.”
