Famous quotes containing the word speed:

    “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)

    “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)

    “Wait, Kate! You skate at such a rate
    You leave behind your skating mate.
    Your splendid speed won’t you abate?
    He’s lagging far behind you, Kate.”
    —David Daiches (b. 1912)
