Famous quotes containing the words short, track, speed and/or skating:
“There was never a century nor a country that was short of experts who knew the Deity’s mind and were willing to reveal it.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“It is remarkable how easily and insensibly we fall into a particular route, and make a beaten track for ourselves. I had not lived there a week before my feet wore a path from my door to the pond-side; and though it is five or six years since I trod it, it is still quite distinct. It is true, I fear, that others may have fallen into it, and so helped to keep it open.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“No speed of wind or water rushing by
But you have speed far greater.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“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)
