Famous quotes containing the words speed and/or skating:
“Spig Wead: Ive been thinking what a heel Ive been about you and about my own kids. I dont know, when I do something, I go all the way. Living. Gambling. Flying. I tap myself out. I guess thats the way I want it to be. Maybe even the way I am.
Minne Wead: Star-spangled Spig. Damn the martinis, full speed ahead and dont give up the ship.”
—Frank Fenton, William Wister Haines, co-scenarist, and John Ford. Spig Wead (John Wayne)
“Good writing is a kind of skating which carries off the performer where he would not go, and is only right admirable when to all its beauty and speed a subserviency to the will, like that of walking, is added.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
