Famous quotes containing the words major, league, baseball and/or final:

    “I have not had major experience of talking with people once pronounced brain-dead, but I think we could be safe in saying he did not have great zip.”
    —Sir Howard Smith (b. 1919)

    “I am not impressed by the Ivy League establishments. Of course they graduate the best—it’s all they’ll take, leaving to others the problem of educating the country. They will give you an education the way the banks will give you money—provided you can prove to their satisfaction that you don’t need it.”
    —Peter De Vries (b. 1910)

    “It is a mass language only in the same sense that its baseball slang is born of baseball players. That is, it is a language which is being molded by writers to do delicate things and yet be within the grasp of superficially educated people. It is not a natural growth, much as its proletarian writers would like to think so. But compared with it at its best, English has reached the Alexandrian stage of formalism and decay.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    “The final aim is not to know, but to be.... You’ve got to know yourself so that you can at last be yourself. “Be yourself” is the last motto.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
