A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.
Thomas Jefferson
If people don't want to come out to the ball park, nobody's gonna stop 'em.
Yogi Berra
Happiness is a ball after which we run wherever it rolls, and we push it with our feet when it stops.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Thus so wretched is man that he would weary even without any cause for weariness... and so frivolous is he that, though full of a thousand reasons for weariness, the least thing, such as playing billiards or hitting a ball, is sufficient enough to amuse him.
Blaise Pascal
There is only one way to achieve happiness on this terrestrial ball, and that is to have either a clear conscience or none at all.
Ogden Nash
Golf is a game in which one endeavors to control a ball with implements ill adapted for the purpose.
Woodrow Wilson
Small miseries, like small debts, hit us in so many places, and meet us at so many turns and corners, that what they want in weight, they make up in number, and render it less hazardous to stand the fire of one cannon ball, than a volley composed of such a shower of bullets.
Rudyard Kipling
How you play the game is for college ball. When you're playing for money, winning is the only thing that matters.
Leo Durocher
For me, the worst part of playing golf, by far, has always been hitting the ball.
Dave Barry
My pitching philosophy is simple - keep the ball way from the bat.
Satchel Paige
When a batter swings and I see his knees move, I can tell just what his weaknesses are then I just put the ball where I know he can't hit it.
Satchel Paige
Just take the ball and throw it where you want to. Throw strikes. Home plate don't move.
Satchel Paige
You gotta keep the ball off the fat part of the bat.
Satchel Paige
The man who complains about the way the ball bounces is likely the one who dropped it.
Lou Holtz
A lifetime contract for a coach means if you're ahead in the third quarter and moving the ball, they can't fire you.
Lou Holtz
Being a good teammate is when you try to sprint down a ball that everyone thinks is going out of bounds. But you go after it anyways and you get it.
Mia Hamm
Leadership is diving for a loose ball, getting the crowd involved, getting other players involved. It's being able to take it as well as dish it out. That's the only way you're going to get respect from the players.
Larry Bird
It doesn't matter who scores the points, it's who can get the ball to the scorer.
Larry Bird
I don't care who you are, you're going to choke in certain matches. You get to a point where your legs don't move and you can't take a deep breath. You start to hit the ball about a yard wide, instead of inches.
Arthur Ashe
Let me put it this way: I think Republicans tend to keep the ball in play, Democrats go for broke.
Arthur Ashe
