I won't be happy until we have every boy in America between the ages of six and sixteen wearing a glove and swinging a bat. - Babe Ruth
I'd give a year of my life if I could hit a homerun on opening day of this great new park. - Babe Ruth
The curve and the fast one are important; the change of pace and the other trick deliveries are great but they're not worth a plugged nickel unless you have control to go along with them. And by control I don't mean the ability to put the ball over the plate somewhere between the shoulders and knees. I mean the ability to hit a three-inch target nine times out of ten, the sort of control that lets you put the ball in the exact spot you want it, and to play a corner to the split fraction of an inch. - Babe Ruth
What I am, what I have, what I am going to leave behind me - all this I owe to the game of baseball. - Babe Ruth
Who is richer? The man who is seen, but cannot see? Or the man who is not being seen, but can see? - Babe Ruth
A good motivation and honesty bring self-confidence, which attracts the trust and respect of others. Therefore the real source of blessings is in our own mind.
A heart full of love and compassion is the main source of inner strength, willpower, happiness, and mental tranquility.
A sense of contentment is crucial to being happy. Physical health, material wealth and friends contribute to this, but contentment governs our relations with them all.
A source of trouble is our unruly minds. We can counter that by developing a warm heart. We need to effect an inner transformation, to understand that love and affection are a real source of joy.
A truly compassionate attitude toward others does not change even if they behave negatively or hurt you.
