Italy at The 1964 Winter Olympics - Figure Skating

Famous quotes containing the words figure and/or skating:

“On every tree a bucket with a lid,
And on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow.
The sparks made no attempt to be the moon.
They were content to figure in the trees
As Leo, Orion, and the Pleiades.
And that was what the boughs were full of soon.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“In skating over thin ice, our safety is in our speed.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
