More quotes by Babe Ruth
If you want to hit home runs, you've go to swing a lot.
Babe Ruth
I hear the cheers when they roared and the jeers when they echoed.
Babe Ruth
How about a little noise. How do you expect a man to putt?
Babe Ruth
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've heard people say that the trouble with the world is that we haven't enough great leaders. I think we haven't enough great followers. I have stood side by side with great thinkers - surgeons, engineers, economists people who deserve a great following - and have heard the crowd cheer me instead.
Babe Ruth
I didn't mean to hit the umpire with the dirt, but I did mean to hit that bastard in the stands.
Babe Ruth
I'd give a year of my life if I could hit a homerun on opening day of this great new park.
Babe Ruth

Babe Ruth

Babe Ruth
Baseball is the greatest game in the world and deserves the best you can give it.
Babe Ruth
What the hell has Hoover got to do with it? Besides, I had a better year than he did.
Babe Ruth
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
I'm going over the valley. (Dying from throat cancer, his doctor found him wandering around his room, asked him where was he going?)
Babe Ruth
I won't be happy until we have every boy in America between the ages of six and sixteen wearing a glove and swinging a bat.
Babe Ruth
They started something here, and the kids are keeping the ball rolling.
