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

    A cheap price is a short cut to being cheated.
    Chinese proverb.

    Our achievements speak for themselves. What we have to keep track of are our failures, discouragements, and doubts. We tend to forget the past difficulties, the many false starts, and the painful groping. We see our past achievements as the end result of a clean forward thrust, and our present difficulties as signs of decline and decay.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    For myself and my loved ones, I want the heat, which comes at the speed of light. I don’t want to have to hang about for the blast, which idles along at the speed of sound.
    Martin Amis (b. 1949)

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