Heroes Don't Need To Talk

Discovered W. Somerset Maugham In About 5th Grade. Didn't Understand The Plots, But Loved The Descriptions.

Baseball Is The Most Perfect Of Games, Solid, True, Pure And Precious As Diamonds. If Only Life Were So Simple. Within The Baselines Anything Can Happen. Tides Can Reverse; Oceans Can Open. That's Why They Say, "the Game Is Never Over Until The Last Man Is Out." Colors Can Change, Lives Can Alter, Anything Is Possible In This Gentle, Flawless, Loving Game.

Any Game Becomes Important When You Know And Love The Players.

I Don't Have Time To Read Nonfiction.

Growing Up Is A Ritual, More Deadly Than Religion, More Complicated Than Baseball, For There Seem To Be No Rules. Everything Is Experienced For The First Time.
