Famous quotes containing the words speed and/or skating:

    “The terror of the atom age is not the violence of the new power but the speed of man’s adjustment to it—the speed of his acceptance.”
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    “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.”
