Famous quotes containing the words speed and/or skating:
“There was such speed in her little body,
And such lightness in her footfall,
It is no wonder her brown study
Astonishes us all.”
—John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
“In skating over thin ice, our safety is in our speed.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
