The dawn speeds a man on his journey, and speeds him too in his work.

line 579.Hesiod
The advanced arithmetical machines of the future will be electrical in nature, and they will perform at 100 times present speeds, or more.
Moreover, they will be far more versatile than present commercial machines, so that they may readily be adapted for a wide variety of operations. They will be controlled by a control card or film, they will select their own data and manipulate it in accordance with the instructions thus inserted, they will perform complex arithmetical computations at exceedingly high speeds, and they will record results in such form as to be readily available for distribution or for later further manipulation.Vannevar Bush
Another force driving progressive evolution is the so-called "arms-race." Prey animals evolve faster running speeds because predators do. Consequently predators have to evolve even faster running speeds, and so on, in an escalating spiral. Such arms races probably account for the spectacularly advanced engineering of eyes, ears, brains, bat "radar" and all the other high-tech weaponry that animals display.
Richard Dawkins
Entropy is not about speeds or positions of particles, the way temperature and pressure and volume are, but about our lack of information.
Hans Christian von Baeyer
Much did I rage when young,
Being by the world oppressed,
But now with flattering tongue
It speeds the parting guest.William Butler Yeats
God blesses still the generous thought,
And still the fitting word He speeds,
And Truth, at His requiring taught,
He quickens into deeds.John Greenleaf Whittier
