Select Ty Cobb Quotations
Don't come home a failure.
Ty Cobb

Baseball is a red-blooded sport for red-blooded men. It's no pink tea, and mollycoddles had better stay out. It's a struggle for supremacy, a survival of the fittest.
Ty Cobb

The base paths belonged to me, the runner. The rules gave me the right. I always went into a bag full speed, feet first. I had sharp spikes on my shoes. If the baseman stood where he had no business to be and got hurt, that was his fault.
Ty Cobb

The great trouble with baseball today is that most of the players are in the game for the money and that's it, not for the love of it, the excitement of it, the thrill of it.
Ty Cobb

I had to fight all my life to survive. They were all against me... but I beat the bastards and left them in the ditch.
Ty Cobb

To get along with me, don't increase my tension.
Ty Cobb
