Famous quotes containing the words figure and/or skating:

    “But, alas, to make me
    A fixèd figure for the time of scorn
    To point his slow unmoving finger at!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “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 (1803–1882)
