I want to thank my parents for letting me play baseball. I`m thankful I had baseball knuckles and couldn`t become a dentist...I got $2,100 a year when I started in the big league, and they get more money now. ...I chased the balls that Babe Ruth hit.
Casey Stengel
He`s got an overall flair for the game. It looks to me like he really loves what he does and he can`t wait to get up in the morning, go hit some balls and go play.
Gary McCord
One man may hit the mark, another blunder; but heed not these distinctions. Only from the alliance of the one, working with and through the other, are great things born.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
[On why she wouldn`t work with Orson Welles] "I can`t win working with Welles. If the picture`s a huge hit he`ll get the credit, and if it`s a flop, I`ll be blamed."
Carole Lombard
I was teaching a Sunday school class at one of the churches in Waycross, Georgia, where I grew up. And the lesson dealt with equality and all of us being one under the eyes of God. All of a sudden it hit me!! This isn`t true! The church was - is- the most...
Pernell Roberts
(July 2001): "I thought of every possible angle which would drive me towards stardom. But I never thought of, when I become a star, what will I do, how will I handle it. Everything has hit me all at once. I realize I don`t have the talent to handle it."
Hrithik Roshan
[1973] I`ve been allowed a few more years - I hope. My lung capacity is naturally limited now, but I had a pretty good set before the disease hit me, so it isn`t too noticeable in my everyday life.
John Wayne
Regarding his spat with New Line: "We have a great many friends at New Line and utmost respect for the risk they took with us and it hurts to be hit with the level of venom directed at us from individuals in that company. It`s been a lot more nasty behind...
Peter Jackson
I`m a Spencer Tracy-type actor. His idea was to be on time, know your words, hit your marks and tell the truth. Most every actor tries to make it something it isn`t [or] looks for the easy way out. I don`t think acting is that difficult if you can put you...
James Garner
To go on about acting as art is ridiculous. If it is an art, then it`s a very low form. You don`t have to be gifted just to hit a mark and say a line. And as far as I`m concerned, hitting my marks and knowing my lines is 90% of the job. I`m always critici...
Kurt Russell
I wouldn`t want to tumble with Harrison Ford in real life. He`s a tough son of a bitch. I threw that man through a window seven times and he landed on his head, got up, rebuilt the window with the crew and then got thrown through it again. I hit that man ...
Paul Bettany
I`ve never been the big recording star I`d love to be some day. I`ve had lots of hits off and on through the years but I`ve never had the success of other artists - one hit after another back-to-back-to-back and big hits, where every song is going to be n...
Dolly Parton
I`ve had my ups and downs. There have been times when I wanted to quit. Times when I hit the bottle. Marital problems. I`ve touched most of the bases.
Gregory Peck
I am the best bodyguard, because I`ll take a bullet, I`ll take a stab wound, I`ll take a hit upside the head; I`m like a Kamikaze pilot; The President got shot because his men relaxed. - Mr. T, in Sept. 1983 issue of Playboy
Mr. T
After I won the Oscar, my salary doubled, my friends tripled, my children became more popular at school, my butcher made a pass at me, and my maid hit me up for a raise.
Shirley Jones
Seriously, I did not want to see The Sixth Sense. I knew I would have nightmares. And my parents agreed with me, too. I`m just too young. I haven`t seen it yet. I still think it`s scary. I don`t like scary movies. [on her brother`s hit movie]
Emily Osment
Friends come in herds and they leave in herds. Hollywood loves an adventure, but you have to hit bottom. Then they love to save you and be a part of it. Or think they`re a part of it.
Burt Reynolds
(On relationship with Liv Tyler) "What can I say ? We hit it off immediately. She`s a darling. I`ve said it over and over again. She`s just very real, right there, never like a movie star. She`s so genuine, and she doesn`t take herself too seriously. It s...
Joaquin Phoenix
Since my first hit, I can`t believe how quickly time has passed. This collection is very dear to me and holds a lifetime of memories. There is nothing like time to give you a sense of perspective and I hope the listener gets as much enjoyment out of these...
Kylie Minogue
Play fair. Don`t hit people. Say you`re sorry when you hurt somebody.
Robert Fulghum
