The difference between a home run and a swing-and-a-miss is, what, an inch and a half? You can throw a great pitch, the guy makes a great swing. And if it’s at a guy, it’s an out. That’s the beauty of baseball, really. There’s not just one guy in control. (Swing Quotes)
I miss the guys, and I miss playing baseball. Just being able to swing the bat, or run, or dive for a ball, or slide into second. (Swing Quotes)
It blew my mind, reading Swing Time, that I could take any sentence in the book, and it was one of the most beautiful sentences written in English. (Swing Quotes)

I swing between procrastination and being really thorough so either way things aren’t getting done quickly. (Swing Quotes)
The most important thing in an argument, next to being right, is to leave an escape hatch for your opponent, so that he can gracefully swing over to your side without too much apparent loss of face. (Swing Quotes)
I kind of thought, wouldn’t it be funny to take a swing at being on the weird side of mainstream? (Swing Quotes)
When I was a kid, I used to listen to my Emerson radio late at night under the covers. I started by listening to jazz in the late 1940s and then vocal harmony groups like the Four Freshmen, the Modernaires and the Hi-Lo’s. I loved Stan Kenton’s big band - with those dark chords and musicians who could swing cool with individual sounds. (Swing Quotes)
I think The Doors are one of the classic groups, and I think we’re all tempted to feel like the time in which we grew up was somehow special, but I really do believe that there were two golden eras in music: The Forties and Fifties of big band, jazz and swing, and the Sixties and Seventies of rock. To me, they’re really unparalleled. (Swing Quotes)
I love most melodic music - classical, reggae, big band, jazz, blues, country, pop, swing, folk (Swing Quotes)
My suggestion to newspapers everywhere is to give the public a reason to read them again. So here’s an idea: get on a big story with widespread public appeal, devote your best resources to it, say a quiet prayer, and swing for the fences. (Swing Quotes)
Back when I was helping put the swing into the swinging 60s, I used to hang out with Cathy McGowan. We’d be doing ‘Ready Steady Go!’ on T.V., and Biba used to make our dresses. We’d be in the flat in Cromwell Road on Friday night, just before the live show, and they’d still be sewing. (Swing Quotes)
I expect to play golf until I am 90-even longer if anybody figures out a way to swing a club from a rocking chair. (Swing Quotes)
Being able to jump off a swing is actually a useful and meaningful thing for a child to do... those are the tests that help us understand the limits of our body. That’s a positive learning experience that we deny children on a regular basis. (Swing Quotes)
Reading is a joy for my kids, and to swing in a hammock on a lazy summer day reading a good book just goes with summer. (Swing Quotes)
When I found myself in the U.S., and the war was at full swing in Bosnia, I read for survival - it was a means of thought resuscitation. (Swing Quotes)
A brick and blanket could be used as a large slingshot, put the brick in the blanket swing it around and release. (Swing Quotes)
And sometimes, he was less lucid. He’d run around his cell like a caged animal; he’d rock back and forth; he’d swing from topic to topic as if it was the only way to cross the jungle of his thoughts. (Swing Quotes)
I see things written about the golf swing that I can’t believe will work except by accident . (Swing Quotes)
When I come to Chicago, I gorge myself. I get off the plane and start with Gene and Jude’s for two hot dogs with everything, swing by The Fudge Pot for a taffy apple and a turtle, chocolate clusters at Sarah’s Pastries and Candies and steak at Smith and Wollensky. I find time for Gino’s pizza within the next 12 hours. (Swing Quotes)
Dividing the swing into its parts is like dissecting a cat. You’ll have blood and guts and bones all over the place. But you won’t have a cat. (Swing Quotes)
Musically, swing pretty much dominated in the 30s. And into the late 30s, swing is beginning to change over to bebop in the early 40s, which is exactly when this new science of theoretical physics, particularly theoretical atomic physics, was really coming to the fore. (Swing Quotes)
I loved Western Swing and Hank Williams’ music, and I now know that it’s a 6th tuning that gives you all of those classic licks. (Swing Quotes)
Whenever I see a tree that is climbable, it must be climbed. Sometimes when I’m on a run, I’ll just run up a tree, jump on a branch and swing off. My favorite tree, in Saratoga, gets me a good 75 feet up. (Swing Quotes)
I almost never hit a shot all out, and I make a conscious effort to swing my long clubs just as I do my wedges. Keep this in mind when hitting your fairway woods. (Swing Quotes)
The toughest thing in hitting shouldn’t be deciding when to swing. It is, for me, deciding when not to swing. You should be swinging from the time you get into the batter’s box until something says don’t swing. (Swing Quotes)
Shooting a movie can be so tedious. You’re trying to get 20 different angles on the same swing. You never get into a rhythm. But I took it very seriously. (Swing Quotes)
I made a good living for a teenager. And I had to learn all different kinds of music - jazz, swing, Motown, pop - and that inspired what kind of music I started to write. (Swing Quotes)
A just thinker will allow full swing to his scepticism. I dip my pen in the blackest ink, because I am not afraid of falling into my inkpot.... We are of different opinions at different hours, but we always may be said to be at heart on the side of truth. (Swing Quotes)
If you have pendulum clocks on the wall and start them all at different times, after a while the pendulums will all swing in synchronicity. The same thing happens with heart cells in a Petri dish: They start beating in rhythm even when they’re not touching one another. (Swing Quotes)
