The season starts too early and finishes too late and there are too many games in between.

The true harbinger of spring is not crocuses or swallows returning to Capistrano, but the sound of the bat on the ball.

There are only two seasons - winter and Baseball.

Baseball is almost the only orderly thing in a very unorderly world. If you get three strikes, even the best lawyer in the world can't get you off.

I try not to break the rules, but merely to test their elasticity.

If there is any justice in this world, to be a White Sox fan frees a man from any other form of penance.

Tradition is the albatross around the neck of progress.

The most beautiful thing in the world is a ballpark filled with people.

I have discovered in 20 years of moving around a ballpark, that the knowledge of the game is usually in inverse proportion to the price of the seats.

Write. Write write write write WRITE. Write. Now.(This is an inspirational writing quote.)

Everything that is bad, the falling sickness - God save the mark - or the like, should be at its worst at the full moon. I suppose because it is the leader of the stars.

He's got to bring something stronger than that. That's like bringing milk to a bar, it's not strong enough

I did with my wife a comic book for the Raynham Hall Museum in Long Island. They sell the book every single time a busload of kids comes in.

Sound health is the greatest of gifts; contentedness, the greatest of riches; trust, the greatest of qualities.

I have the hatred of apartheid in my bones.

You lose, you smile, and you come back the next day. You win, you smile, you come back the next day.

I'm in total control. I write the songs, decide what to sing and how to sing. I even control the recording process. But, with a film, there is no control at all.

If they are just, they are better than clever.
