Speed Stall

Famous quotes containing the words speed and/or stall:

    Wait, Kate! You skate at such a rate
    You leave behind your skating mate.
    Your splendid speed won’t you abate?
    He’s lagging far behind you, Kate.
    David Daiches (b. 1912)

    Old age, believe me, is a good and pleasant thing. It is true you are gently shouldered off the stage, but then you are given such a comfortable front stall as spectator.
