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

    It is while we are young that the habit of industry is formed. If not then, it never is afterwards. The fortune of our lives therefore depends on employing well the short period of our youth.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    Away went the messenger’s bicycle,
    His serpent’s track went up the hill forever.
    And all the time she stood there hot as fever
    And cold as any icicle.
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    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)

    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)
