An intelligent person fights for lost causes, realizing that others are merely effects

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.
Babe Ruth
Image
The only regret I have in my career, is my managers wanted a big payday, and I wanted four or five more fights before going in with [Larry] Holmes. That would have made all the difference.

Status does not matter. It is what you are like as a player. It doesn't matter how much money you have come for. That doesn't matter to me. I will play a 17-year-old if he fights and he has quality. It is quite easy.

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who also happens to be the 10th richest person in America, with a personal fortune of some $18 billion, likes to pick a fight - especially fights where the line between good and evil is particularly stark.

Why does the guerrilla fighter fight? We must come to the inevitable conclusion that the guerrilla fighter is a social reformer, that he takes up arms responding to the angry protest of the people against their oppressors, and that he fights in order to change the social system that keeps all his unarmed brothers in ignominy and misery.
Che Guevara

Fights take a long time to shoot.

War, like children's fights, are meaningless, pitiless, and contemptible.

The man who fights against his own country is never a hero.

Jimmy Connors plays two tennis matches and winds up with $850,000, and Muhammad Ali fights for one bout and winds up with five million bucks. Me, I play 190 games--if you count exhibitions -- and I'm overpaid!
Johnny Bench

The Warrior sometimes fights with those he loves.
Paulo Coelho

When I did sports cartoons, I used to uh, go to fights.
Rube Goldberg

That's the interesting part of being a judge to me - I don't even care about these people's fights that they're having with each other, but I have to invest in it enough to figure out. I have to make a decision.

Reverend Galamison is fighting a hard battle against great opposition, and I admire a man who fights a hard battle against great opposition.
Malcolm X

President al-Assad and his army are the only force that actually fights ISIS.
Vladimir Putin
Image
He was fortunate to fight me on a bad night because if he fights me when I'm firing on all cylinders, he's getting battered as well.
Carl Froch
Image
Each generation thinks it fights new battles. But the battles are the same. Only the people are different.
Chaim Potok
Image
I cannot remember a time when I was not getting into fights.
George Foreman
Image
I admire a man who fights a battle against opposition, and if there wasn't something about [Reverend] Galamison that the people, I notice that the power structure is against Galamison.
Malcolm X
Image
Even if I didn't have the support that I have, I would still be fighting the same fights, and I would still be the same person that I am today.
Chelsea Manning
Image
I believe there's something very salutary in, say, beating up a gay-bashing policeman. Preferably one fights through the courts, through the laws, through education, but if at a neighborhood level violence is necessary, I'm all for violence. It's the only thing Americans understand.
Gore Vidal
Image
This is the secret that none dares tell who fights for a cause. Dying, we are all alike.
Jacqueline Carey
Image
I would get in fights a lot. My voice was so heavy, kids would say you sound like a boy, so I would start beating them up.
Mavis Staples
Image
Anyone can win two fights in one night, but it is the third fight that tells you if you have steel balls or not.
