I, the solitary fish, a fish apart
(apart at least from the tree fish and the stone fish),
write, at isolated moments, a tiny fish or two
whose glittering scales, so fleeting,
may only be the dark's embarrassed wink.

"In Heraclitus' River"

In Heraclitus' river
a fish has imagined the fish of all fish,
a fish kneels to the fish, a fish sings to the fish,
a fish begs the fish to ease its fishy lot.

Ideas are like fish.
If you want to catch little fish, you can stay in the shallow water. But if you want to catch the big fish, you've got to go deeper.
Down deep the fish are more powerful and more pure. They're huge and abstract. And they're very beautiful.

Mitch Hedberg

 

the fish is mute.
expressionless.
the fish doesn't think,
because the fish knows everything.
the fish knows everything.

 

Emir Kusturica

 

This next song is about... fish... just one singular fish... he was a lonely fish, but he died happy.
