Sometimes, counter-intuitively, it’s easier to make a major change than a minor change.

If you look only as Genesis as an allegory, you have a major problem, because if it’s an allegory, then tell me who our ancestor was? If Abraham was real, then from Abraham if Adam isn’t real, if it’s just an allegory, it’s just a story, then what’s the real Adam who really fell in a garden and really sinned? Where did we come from? (Major Quotes)
America overflows with specious ‘victims’ demanding redress for spurious grievances. However, one genuinely oppressed minority is getting overdue relief. Beginning with spring training in Arizona and Florida, Major League Baseball, taking pity on traumatized pitchers, is directing umpires to enforce the strike zone as defined in the rulebook. What a concept (Major Quotes)
Night baseball isn’t an aberration. What’s an aberration is a team that hasn’t won a World Series since 1908.

My major league debut came at old Busch Stadium on Grand Avenue in St. Louis, against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The first pitch I threw was to third baseman Bob Bailey. It was a fastball, low and away.

I’m anxious to face them (major league pitchers) all, but in reality I’m looking forward most to (Boston’s) Pedro Martinez.

And I’m anxious to see how much I’ve improved against him (Major Quotes)

In the late 19th century there was a major union organization, Knights of Labor, and also a radical populist movement based on farmers.

A Wrinkle in Time was almost never published. You can’t name a major publisher who didn’t reject it (Major Quotes)
