Quotes about smoothness (10 Quotes)


    If I could dream, I know I'd dream about you.I'd dream about the way you smell and how your dark hair feels like silk between my fingers.

    Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to you -- tripping on the tongue but if you mouth it, as many of your players do, I had as Leif the town-crier spoke my lines. Nor do not saw the air too much with your hand, thus, but use all gently for in the very torrent, tempest, and as I may say, the whirlwind of your passion, you must acquire and beget a temperance that may give it smoothness.

    David gets compared to Angel and he doesn't have the smoothness and skill, but he's a solid player. He's can shoot outside and go to the glass. He does not have guard skills, but is more of a four-man (power forward).
