Quotes of 1953

Quotes taken from the authors in 1953

I didn't push Cory. I wanted him to decide if he wanted to go into boxing and he did. Can't blame it on me.

Leon Spinks

God gave me the strength to see, and breathe, and talk.

Leon Spinks

I know a lot of people think I'm dumb. Well, at least I ain't no educated fool.

Leon Spinks

I don't want the kids to go through want I went through.

Leon Spinks

I never did think I had brain damage.

Leon Spinks

I am very grateful to the electronic world for making my life easier, but there is something about holding a book - the smell and the world of association. Even when e-books are perfected, as they surely will be, it will be like being in bed with a very well-made robot rather than a warm, soft, human being whom you love.

Anne Fadiman

The most important thing when starting out with essay writing is to find a voice with which you're comfortable. You need to find a persona that is very much like you, but slightly caricatured.

Anne Fadiman

For me, literature is a way of enlarging myself by learning about people who are not like me.

Anne Fadiman

I would like to attribute my range of interests to being an independent intellectual, but although I'm independent, I'm not sure I qualify as an intellectual. Basically, I'm an old-fashioned amateur.

Anne Fadiman

I always wanted to be a writer, and I did want to be a novelist. In college I took a couple of classes that taught me I would never be a novelist. I discovered I had no imagination. My short stories were always thinly veiled memoir.

Anne Fadiman

In these days of modern tennis a player is as strong as his weakest stroke.

Bill Tilden

Never change a winning game; always change a losing one.

Bill Tilden

The decisions you are making right now and that you will make in the foreseeable months and years will absolutely determine whether you pivot towards the world or towards the Lord.

Sheri L.Dew

I had a lot of friends who were boys. I played ball with them, but we didn't date. They didn't ask me that much because I wasn't cute enough or because I didn't drink or party.

Sheri L.Dew

No 11-year-old girl wants to be 5-10. I always felt big and unattractive.

Sheri L.Dew

If we don't do as well as we know how and we are prepared to do, it'll be largely because we act and make choices as though we're going to stay here, as though this life is all there is, when that is not the case.

Sheri L.Dew

There isn't anyone who wants to see me married more than I do.

Sheri L.Dew

Not many people get to the major leagues and succeed right away. There are some struggles. Everyone seems to struggle.

George Brett

American League teams don't bunt very often. National League teams bunt a lot.

George Brett

There's nothing like Opening Day. There's nothing like the start of a new season. I started playing baseball when I was seven years old and quit playing when I was 40, so it's kind of in my blood.

George Brett
