Quotes of 1949

Quotes taken from the authors in 1949

I think I have already signed some scrap of paper for every man, woman, and child in the United States. What do they do with all those scraps of paper with my signature on it?

I keep telling myself, don't get cocky. Give your services to the press and the media, be nice to the kids, throw a baseball into the stands once in a while.

It's a weird scene. You win a few baseball games and all of a sudden you're surrounded by reporters and TV men with cameras asking you about Vietnam and race relations.

Sometimes in this game it's as good to be lucky as it is to be good.

I'm not sure where my career is going here in Cincinnati.

I have a lot of interests.

I'm a strong man, and usually I get over hurts and it makes me stronger when I come back.

I'm not a guy that sits around and does nothing.

The fundamentals of baseball haven't changed, but how we can teach those fundamentals has. With an e-book, learning can be more rewarding and fun.

Rugby is great. The players don't wear helmets or padding; they just beat the living daylights out of each other and then go for a beer. I love that.

No matter how great you are, the next great one is already sitting there waiting to take your place.

Nobody in football should be called a genius. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein.

I was always told that I was too small, too skinny, too slow, not tough enough, and I never ever believed what people told me.

This is a game, first and foremost. There was only one Vince Lombardi, and he died.

I like cream cheese in just about anything.

When I started to write culinary mysteries, I did it because nobody was doing it anymore.

The thing is, if you make best-sellerdom your goal, you're going to be in trouble. It's a very nice thing to have happen, but if one makes that a goal like, say, a literary writer has the goal of getting the Pulitzer Prize, that's so unpredictable.

Catering is extremely demanding financially and physically. It's a business.

Diane Mott Davidson

The main thing I look for in a recipe is taste, which is different from caterers and restaurants, who first ask 'How does it look?'

Diane Mott Davidson

When the market is just going up, up, and up, we all tend to be blind to the holes in the market. They're all papered over by the rise.
