One Of My Less Pleasant Chores When I Was Young Was To Read The Bible From One End To The Other.

One of my less pleasant chores when I was young was to read the Bible from
one end to the other. Reading the Bible straight through is at least 70
percent discipline, like learning Latin. But the good parts are, of course,
simply amazing. God is an extremely uneven writer, but when He's good,
nobody can touch him.
-- John Gardner, NYT Book Review, Jan. 1983
