Famous quotes containing the words baseball, due and/or east:

“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 due process of law as we use it, I believe, rests squarely on the liberal idea of conflict and resolution.”
—June L. Trapp (b. 1930)

“I’ th’ East my pleasure lies.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
