BASEBALL QUOTES
.
"Today I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth." (during his retirement ceremony on July 4, 1939.)
.
When asked whether he minded playing in the shadow of the Bambino all the time: "Babe Ruth has a pretty big shadow, it gives me lots of room to spread myself."
.
"There is no room in baseball for discrimination. It is our national pastime and a game for all." (on baseball's infamous color barrier)
.
"The ballplayer who loses his head, who can't keep his cool, is worse than no ballplayer at all."
.

.
ENDORSEMENT:
.
LUCKIEST MAN (see book cover above) is the best
biography I've ever read, sports or otherwise.
.
Others must agree because it is a former New York
Times best seller.
.
If you should have just one biography to read in life,
Luckiest Man should be your choice; it is superbly
written and leaves you breathless from its extraordinary
research and startling detail of one man's life.
.

DISCLAIMER:
.
Although I have complimented the author of the biography
via email, I am endorsing this book on my own without any
consultation with or compensation from the author.

EXERCISE QUOTES

.

[on how he keeps fit]

Passing the vodka bottle. And playing the guitar.

-- Keith Richards

.

I would rather exercise than read a newspaper.

-- Kim Alexis

.

The only exercise I get is walking behind the coffins of friends who took exercise.

-- Peter O'Toole

.

I’m sitting with a director, and he asks me if I work out. I deadpan, ‘Yeah, I lift men. You busy later?’ Total silence. There were tumbleweeds rolling across the room. I didn’t get the part.

-- Jessica Cauffiel

.

I do try and keep fit, but it's a half-hearted battle. I'll go for a jog once a fortnight and then feel ill for two days afterwards. And now and again I'll join a health club, but the trauma of filling in the form and having my photo taken for the membership card usually puts me off going for about 12 months. But I'm still optimistic that one day I'll be offered a guest role in Baywatch.

-- Steve Coogan
