Famous quotes containing the words play and/or ball:

“As the creative adult needs to toy with ideas, the child, to form his ideas, needs toys—and plenty of leisure and scope to play with them as he likes, and not just the way adults think proper. This is why he must be given this freedom for his play to be successful and truly serve him well.”

I saw him rack up thirty-eight or forty
In one home game. His hands were like wild birds.”
