Bats Quotes

I’m from Boston, and in Boston, you are born with a baseball bat in your hand. And actually, most of the bats in Massachusetts are used off the field instead of on the field, and we all had baseball bats in our cars in high school Picture Quote #1

When we played the Dodgers in St. Louis, they had to come through our dugout, and our bat rack was right there where they had to walk. My bats kept disappearing, and I couldn’t figure it out. Turns out, Pee Wee Reese was stealing my bats. I found that out later, after we got out of baseball. He and Rube Walker stole my bats Picture Quote #1

Everyone has an enemy. It’s why God gave us baseball bats. Well, He gave us trees, but we knew what He meant Picture Quote #1

Hitters are too big, too strong, and their bats are too quick. I have to go inside to have success Picture Quote #1

I have entered the sports equipment business with ‘Bhajji Sports.’ I am applying for ICC clearance so that cricket bats with ‘Bhajji Sports’ logos could be used for international matches. In domestic circuit, the Punjab team is already wearing Bhajji Sports dresses for the Ranji Trophy matches Picture Quote #1

I wrote ‘Airborn’ after completing three books about bats. I loved my bats, but what a treat it was to write about humans again. They could eat food other than midges and mosquitoes, they wore clothing, they slept in beds - all this struck me as wonderfully novel Picture Quote #1

Vampires were always able to transform into creatures of the night. The dark creatures like bats have always been associated with vampires and using the darkness to their own advantage Picture Quote #1

It’s especially gratifying to have done a film like ‘Eight Men Out’ because it’s hard not to have fun when there are so many bats and balls around Picture Quote #1

When we are youths in the Dominican, we pick up bats and balls because baseball is part of what we grow up with. The fun feeling you get playing keeps your head up when you encounter difficult times Picture Quote #1

Then what shall I write? I can’t just write that this happened then this happened then this happened to boring infinitum. I’ll let my journal grow just like the mind does, just like a tree or beast does, just like life does. Why should a book tell a tale in a dull straight line? Words should wander and meander. They should fly like owls and flicker like bats and slip like cats. They should murmur and scream and dance and sing Picture Quote #1

I never blame myself when I'm not hitting. I just blame the bat and if it keeps up, I change bats. After all, if I know it isn't my fault that I'm not hitting, how can I get mad at myself? Picture Quote #1

Far different there from all that charm'd before, the various terrors of that horrid shore;... Those matted woods where birds forget to sing. But silent bats in drowsy clusters cling Picture Quote #1

At night the bats will beat on the trees, knowing it all, seeing what they sensed all day Picture Quote #1

I will stand on, and continue to use, the figures I have used, because I believe they are correct. Now, I'm not going to deny that you don't now and then slip up on something; no one bats a thousand Picture Quote #1

What work's, my countrymen, in hand? Where go you with bats and clubs? The matter? Speak, I pray you Picture Quote #1

For as the eyes of bats are to the blaze of day, so is the reason in our soul to the things which are by nature most evident of all Picture Quote #1

Bats have no bankers and they do not drink and cannot be arrested and pay no tax and, in general, bats have it made Picture Quote #1

During my 18 years I came to bat almost 10,000 times. I struck out about 1,700 times and walked maybe 1,800 times. You figure a ballplayer will average about 500 at bats a season. That means I played seven years without ever hitting the ball Picture Quote #1

You know, when I was a young boy I used to play baseball in my back yard or in the street with my brothers or the neighborhood kids. We used broken bats and plastic golf balls and played for hours and hours Picture Quote #1

Sydney is rather like an arrogant lover. When it rains it can deny you its love and you can find it hard to relate to. It’s not a place that’s built to be rainy or cold. But when the sun comes out, it bats its eyelids, it’s glamorous, beautiful, attractive, smart, and it’s very hard to get away from its magnetic pull Picture Quote #1

Words should wander and meander. They should fly like owls and flicker like bats and slip like cats. They should murmur and scream and dance and sing Picture Quote #1

Rituals, even unhappy ones, provide a measure of comfort. Like a superstitious ballplayer who will only use certain bats, my depression rituals have become a fixed, normal part of my life... I need rituals to prevent unnecessarily rocking my already shaky emotional boat Picture Quote #1

I’m sure I’ve been a toad, one time or another. With bats, weasels, worms... I rejoice in the kinship. Even the caterpillar I can love, and the various vermin Picture Quote #1

What I’ve learned, above all, is to keep marching forward because the best news is that since chance does play a role, one important factor in success is under our control: the number of at bats, the number of chances taken, the number of opportunities seized Picture Quote #1

I would order a dozen bats and there were times they’d come back with handles at each end Picture Quote #1

My head was a condemned church with a ceiling of bats, but I swung from this dark mood to euphoria when I thought about leaving Picture Quote #1

The dead are hard to look at. Their faces shimmer. They all look slightly angry or confused. they will come up to you and speak, but their voices sound like chatter, like bats twittering. Once they realize you can’t understand them, they frown and move away. The dead aren’t scary. They’re just sad Picture Quote #1

When people discover they are no good at baseball or hockey, they put away their bats and their skates and they take up amateur golf or stamp collecting or gardening. But when people discover they are no good at picking stocks, they are likely to continue to do it anyway Picture Quote #1
