I didn't get over 1300 walks without knowing the strike zone.
Wade Boggs
Image
Hatred strikes me as one of the few signs of life remaining in the world. This is another thing about the world which is upsidedown: all the friendly and likable people seem dead to me only the haters seem alive.
Walker Percy
Image
Whenever I feel bad, I go to the library and read controversial periodicals. Though I do not know whether I am a liberal or a conservative, I am nevertheless enlivened by the hatred which one bears the other. In fact, this hatred strikes me as one of the few signs of life remaining in the world.
Walker Percy
Image
I sit down and draw from my lyric book. I sit down and start looking through it and see if there is anything that strikes me that I've written.
Amy Ray
Image
If a drought strikes them, animals perish--man builds irrigation canals if a flood strikes them, animals perish--man builds dams if a carnivorous pack attacks them, animals perish--man writes the Constitution of the United States.
Ayn Rand
Image
It's tough to strike out. Believe me. I hate striking out. It's no fun. It's embarrassing. But there really isn't anything I can do. It's just a part of my game.
Jim Thome

Twitter is a place where you share your thoughts, yourself... you don't want a plain white backdrop for that. You want the entire page to say something about who you are. Designer or not, if the urge strikes you, go for it. Put up that watercolor you've never shown anyone. Take a photo of that hat you just knitted... whatever it is, share it.
Nate Berkus
Image
Man's passion for truth is such that he will welcome the bitterest of all postulates so long as it strikes him as true.
Antonio Machado
Image
A book store is a treasure chest. Every time you walk in one, you strike gold.
Regina Brett
Image
Inactivity strikes us as intelligent behavior.
Warren Buffett
Image
The other side of midnight’s hour strikes a herald thrice rung Seer, Shadow, Sun—together they come Sixteen winters hence—the light shall be eclipsed Leaving darkness to ascend beneath a sky bleeding fire
Alyson Noel
Image
I don’t need to go out there and trick guys, and I don’t need to go out there and be perfect. I've just got to attack the strike zone, let my stuff work and get much better results that way.
Stephen Strasburg
Image
I can trust in my parents' love. And it strikes me that is a big thing to trust, a big thing to have had, no matter what else happens.
Ally Condie
Image
Who would be free themselves must strike the blow. Better even to die free than to live slaves.
Frederick Douglass
Image
The whole city gives you the impression of impermanence. You have the feeling that one day someone is going to yell, Cut! Strike it! and then the stagehands will scurry out and remove the mountains, the movie-star homes, the Hollywood Bowl--everything.
Allan Sherman
Image
Can it then be that what we call the 'self' is fluid and elastic? It evolves, strikes a different balance with every new breath.
Wayne Muller
Image
The cloud controls the light ... It is the cloud that, holding the sun's rays in a sheaf as a giant holds a handful of spears, strikes the horizon, touches the extreme edge with a delicate revelation of light, or suddenly puts it out and makes the foreground shine.
Alice Meynell

I've never been starstruck but I may have wanted to strike a star once or twice.
Grumpy Cat
Image
I've been playing live gigs since I was 13. I really don't know how to do anything else, and please God strike me down.
Joshua Homme
Image
History shows that all protest movements rely on symbols - boycotts, strikes, sit-ins, flags, songs. Symbolic action on whatever scale - from the Montgomery Bus Boycott to wearing a simple wristband - is designed to disrupt our everyday complacency and force people to think.
Hugh Evans
Image
The whole concept of dividing it up into 'value' and 'growth' strikes me as twaddle. It's convenient for a bunch of pension fund consultants to get fees prattling about and a way for one advisor to distinguish himself from another. But, to me, all intelligent investing is value investing.
Charlie Munger
Image
Never use the word, 'very.' It is the weakest word in the English language doesn't mean anything. If you feel the urge of 'very' coming on, just write the word, 'damn,' in the place of 'very.' The editor will strike out the word, 'damn,' and you will have a good sentence.
William Allen White
Image
Every now and then, I strike something that just goes click, you know, in my head. As Gertrude Stein used to say, it rings the bell, and I feel, this is great.
James Laughlin
Image
Looking forward into an empty year strikes one with a certain awe, because one finds therein no recognition. The years behind have a friendly aspect, and they are warmed by the fires we have kindled, and all their echoes are the echoes of our own voices.
