Hit Home Run

Famous quotes containing the words hit, home and/or run:

    Writing or printing is like shooting with a rifle; you may hit your reader’s mind, or miss it;Mbut talking is like playing at a mark with the pipe of an engine; if it is within reach, and you have time enough, you can’t help hitting it.
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)

    Let those who go home tell the same story of you:
    Of action with a common purpose, action
    None the less fruitful if neither you nor we
    Know, until the moment after death
    What is the fruit of action.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    What if the Church and the State
    Are the mob that howls at the door!
    Wine shall run thick to the end,
    Bread taste sour.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
