Fly Ball

Famous quotes containing the words fly and/or ball:

“The life of man in this world is like the life of a fly in a room filled with 100 boys, each armed with a fly-swatter.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)

“I don’t like comparisons with football. Baseball is an entirely different game. You can watch a tight, well-played football game, but it isn’t exciting if half the stadium is empty. The violence on the field must bounce off a lot of people. But you can go to a ball park on a quiet Tuesday afternoon with only a few thousand people in the place and thoroughly enjoy a one-sided game. Baseball has an aesthetic, intellectual appeal found in no other team sport.”
—Bowie Kuhn (b. 1926)
