I can't recall a day this year or last when I did not hear the name of Babe Ruth.

To this day, I don't know how he withstood the things he did without lashing back. I've been through a lot in my time, and I consider myself to be a patient man, but I know I couldn't have done what Jackie did. I don't think anybody else could have done it. Somehow, though, Jackie had the strength to suppress his instincts, to sacrifice his pride for his people.

Our goal was to put one person into the second day (finals) to legitimize the tournament.

It took me seventeen years to get three thousand hits in baseball. It took one afternoon on the golf course.

Didn't come up here to read. Came up here to hit.
