Famous quotes containing the words speed and/or skating:
“If it be aught toward the general good,
Set honor in one eye, and death i’th’ other,
And I will look on both indifferently;
For let the gods so speed me as I love
The name of honor more than I fear death.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“In skating over thin ice, our safety is in our speed.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
