The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, the club won't be worth a dime.
From Babe Ruth
Never let the fear of striking out get in your way.
Reading isn't good for a ballplayer. Not good for his eyes. If my eyes went bad even a little bit I couldn't hit home runs. So I gave up reading.
Every strike brings me closer to the next home run.
All I can tell them is pick a good one and sock it. I get back to the dugout and they ask me what it was I hit and I tell them I don't know except it looked good.
I didn't mean to hit the umpire with the dirt, but I did mean to hit that bastard in the stands.
I won't be happy until we have every boy in America between the ages of six and sixteen wearing a glove and swinging a bat.
I had only one superstition. I made sure to touch all the bases when I hit a home run.
Who is richer? The man who is seen, but cannot see? Or the man who is not being seen, but can see?
I learned early to drink beer, wine and whiskey. And I think I was about 5 when I first chewed tobacco.
