Base Ball

Famous quotes containing the words base and/or ball:

    “They must to keep their certainty accuse
    All that are different of a base intent;
    Pull down established honour; hawk for news
    Whatever their loose phantasy invent
    And murmur it with bated breath....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Blackberries
    Big as the ball of my thumb, and dumb as eyes
    Ebon in the hedges, fat
    With blue-red juices. These they squander on my fingers.
    I had not asked for such a blood sisterhood; they must love me.”
    —Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
