Famous quotes containing the words figure and/or skating:

    “When my outward action doth demonstrate
    The native act and figure of my heart
    In compliment extern, ‘tis not long after
    But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve
    For daws to peck at: I am not what I am.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “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)
