More quotes by 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
I hear the cheers when they roared and the jeers when they echoed.
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
You just can't beat the person who never gives up.
Babe Ruth
Baseball is the greatest game in the world and deserves the best you can give it.
Babe Ruth
If you want to hit home runs, you've go to swing a lot.
Babe Ruth
Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.
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
What the hell difference does it make?
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
Baseball was, is and always will be to me the best game in the world.
Babe Ruth
As soon as I got out there I felt a strange relationship with the pitcher's mound. It was as if I'd been born out there. Pitching just felt like the most natural thing in the world. Striking out batters was easy.
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 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
I learned early to drink beer, wine and whiskey. And I think I was about 5 when I first chewed tobacco.
Babe Ruth
The termites have got me.
Babe Ruth
Let me show you how it's done... Loser!
Babe Ruth
The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, the club won't be worth a dime.
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
After all, there's only one aswer to be made to the young fellow who is asking constantly for advice as to how to hit. The answer is: Pick out a good one and sock it!
