I copied (Shoeless Joe) Jackson's style because I thought he was the greatest hitter I had ever seen, the greatest natural hitter I ever saw. He's the guy who made me a hitter.
Babe Ruth

I'd play for half my salary if I could hit in this dump (Wrigley Field) all the time.
Babe Ruth
Image
I thank heaven we have had baseball in this world... the kids... our national pastime.

Don't let the fear of striking out hold you back.

I don't give a damn about any actors. What good will John Barrymore do you with the bases loaded and two down in a tight ball game. Either I get the money (more than Barrymore), or I don't play!
Babe Ruth
Image
If it wasn't for baseball, I'd be in either the penitentiary or the cemetery. I have the same violent temper my father and older brother had. Both died of injuries from street fights in Baltimore, fights begun by flare-ups of their tempers.

Don't be afraid to take advice. There's always something new to learn.
Babe Ruth
Image
I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can.

It's hard to beat somebody when they don't give up.
Babe Ruth
Image
Baseball is the greatest game in the world and deserves the best you can give it.
Babe Ruth
Image
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.
Babe Ruth
Image
You just can't beat the person who never gives up.
Babe Ruth
Image
Well, the good Lord and good luck must have been with me because I did exactly what I said I was going to do.
Babe Ruth
Image
(Ty) Cobb is a prick. But he sure can hit. God Almighty, that man can hit.
Babe Ruth

Let me show you how it's done... Loser!
Babe Ruth

I said I'm going to hit the next one right over the flagpole. God must have been with me.
