Famous quotes containing the words ice and/or skating:

    Will lovely, lively, virginal today
    Shatter for us with a wing’s drunken blow
    This hard, forgotten lake haunted in snow
    By the sheer ice of flocks not flown away!
    Stéphane Mallarmé (1842–1898)

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