Famous quotes containing the words figure and/or skating:

    I can see that figure now—pallidly neat, pitiably respectable, incurably forlorn! It was Bartleby.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    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)
