Famous quotes containing the words short, track, speed and/or skating:

    “The short lesson that comes out of long experience in political agitation is something like this: all the motive power in all of these movements is the instinct of religious feeling. All the obstruction comes from attempting to rely on anything else. Conciliation is the enemy.”
    —John Jay Chapman (1862–1933)

    “He who rides and keeps the beaten track studies the fences chiefly.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The greatest felony in the news business today is to be behind, or to miss a big story. So speed and quantity substitute for thoroughness and quality, for accuracy and context. The pressure to compete, the fear somebody else will make the splash first, creates a frenzied environment in which a blizzard of information is presented and serious questions may not be raised.”
    —Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)

    “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)
