"In a sense, making sushi and sashimi has much in common with creating a Zen garden. On the grounds of a Buddhist temple, a monk snips away at the trees and shrubs until they have been reduced to abstract symbols evoking nature's beauty in miniature. A sushi chef snips away at fish, reducing them to abstract morsels of the sea." (
The Zen of Fish, p. 152)
