Figure Skating/world Standings and Seasons Bests

Famous quotes containing the words figure, skating, world and/or seasons:

    “On every tree a bucket with a lid,
    And on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow.
    The sparks made no attempt to be the moon.
    They were content to figure in the trees
    As Leo, Orion, and the Pleiades.
    And that was what the boughs were full of soon.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

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

    “The kind of relatedness to the world may be noble or trivial, but even being related to the basest kind of pattern is immensely preferable to being alone.”
    —Erich Fromm (1900–1980)

    “There is no single face in nature, because every eye that looks upon it, sees it from its own angle. So every mans spice-box seasons his own food.”
    —Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
