You cannot make run sitting in the pavalion.
Sports do not build character. They reveal it.
The trouble with officials is they just don’t care who wins.
All sports are games of inches.
The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.
I always turn to the sports section first. The sports page records people’s accomplishments; the front page has nothing but man’s failures.
We can’t win at home. We can’t win on the road. As general manager, I just can’t figure out where else to play.
If a tie is like kissing your sister, losing is like kissing your grandmother with her teeth out.
We didn’t lose the game; we just ran out of time.
There are three things in my life which I really love: God, my family, and baseball. The only problem once baseball season starts, I change the order around a bit.
One day of practice is like one day of clean living. It doesn’t do you any good.
The more I practice, the luckier I get.
To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there’s no music, no choreography, and the dancers hit each other.
Playing polo is like trying to play golf during an earthquake.
The difference between the old ballplayer and the new ballplayer is the jersey. The old ballplayer cared about the name on the front. The new ballplayer cares about the name on the back.
Most games are lost, not won.
Life is simply a cricket match, with temptation as the bowler.
Sport is a preserver of health.
Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence: in other words, it is war minus the shooting… there are quite enough real causes of trouble already, and we need not add to them by encouraging young men to kick each other on the shins amid the roars of infuriated spectators.

Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.

I’d prefer reading in my native language, because my knowledge of your languange is no so well.
