More quotes by Babe Ruth
Let me show you how it's done... Loser!
Babe Ruth
To my sick little pal. I will try to knock you another homer, maybe two today.
Babe Ruth
Don't let the fear of striking out hold you back.
Babe Ruth
How to hit home runs: I swing as hard as I can, and I try to swing right through the ball... The harder you grip the bat, the more you can swing it through the ball, and the farther the ball will go. I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can.
Babe Ruth
Read about your case of amnesia. Must be a new brand.
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
All I can tell them is pick a good one and sock it. I get back to the dugout and they ask me what it was I hit and I tell them I don't know except it looked good.
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
I thank heaven we have had baseball in this world... the kids... our national pastime.
Babe Ruth
It's hard to beat a person that never gives up.
Babe Ruth
I'd play for half my salary if I could hit in this dump (Wrigley Field) all the time.
Babe Ruth
I hear the cheers when they roared and the jeers when they echoed.
Babe Ruth
The termites have got me.
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
Yesterday's home runs don't win today's games.
Babe Ruth
It's hard to beat somebody when they don't give up.
Babe Ruth
You just can't beat the person who never gives up.
Babe Ruth
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
I didn't mean to hit the umpire with the dirt, but I did mean to hit that bastard in the stands.
Babe Ruth
What the hell has Hoover got to do with it? Besides, I had a better year than he did.
