Base Ball

Famous quotes containing the words base and/or ball:

    No love is entirely without worth, even when the frivolous calls to the frivolous and the base to the base.
    Iris Murdoch (b. 1919)

    Any balance we achieve between adult and parental identities, between children’s and our own needs, works only for a time—because, as one father says, “It’s a new ball game just about every week.” So we are always in the process of learning to be parents.
    Joan Sheingold Ditzion, Dennie, and Palmer Wolf. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 2 (1978)
