Nowadays the rage for possession has got to such a pitch that there is nothing in the realm of nature, whether sacred or profane, out of which profit cannot be squeezed

I kind of like things slightly out of tune. It makes me feel... intoxicated almost... but in a good way. Like I`m at a carnival in a dream. Not sure that makes sense, but I do have pretty good pitch recognition. I see colors for different key signatures, ...

Baseball is a game where a curve is an optical illusion, a screwball can be a pitch or a person, stealing is legal and you can spit anywhere you like except in the umpire`s eye or on the ball.

I went to an all-girls boarding school for most of my youth. We used to do stupid, fun girly things like pull tights over our faces and streak through the lacrosse pitch. And once I snogged the gardener.

From the very very beginning, when everyone thought it was crazy, I was thinking of The Chronicles of Riddick as a trilogy. That would start with the movie you saw, and Pitch Black would act as a prequel that introduced you to the character. So in simple ...

I was gonna throw the first pitch at a Mets game, but there was a rain delay. So I`m waiting for it to stop, and the team`s manager, Willie Randolph comes by. Now he`s already intimidating to begin with. But he comes over to me and says, "If you screw thi...

I was being offered three franchises at the same time - Pitch Black, XXX, and The Fast and the Furious - and I had to choose. I couldn`t do all three. - on why he didn`t do the Fast and the Furious sequel

I am so excited to be performing once again at GAY. There`s an atmosphere there that is unlike anywhere else. Last time I performed there they had a huge clock counting down the minutes until the show and by the time I came on the crowd was at fever pitch...

Charlie was a 45-year-old rocker who had been spat out the other side - they were looking at someone like John Hannah. My pitch was, `Wouldn`t it be a more interesting character if he was someone who has barely scratched the surface of what he could be?` ...

About the boat scene in Star Trek: Generations (1994): "Shooting the boat sequences, I think, is probably something all of us have a story to tell about. I can tell you that the boat was supposed to be pitching back and forth, so we all had to really pitc...

(On working on the set of Pitch Black (2000)) "Learning to use all of those weapons and looking like a professional mercenary. It`s always fun to play someone like an action hero that you always wanted to play as a child. I think every young boy loves tha...
Cole Hauser
(On landing No Country for Old Men) The Coen Brothers didn`t pitch the project to me actually. I had read the book first without knowing that there was a movie being made. My agent actually called me and said they were making "No Country" and explained th...
Josh Brolin
You`ve definitely got to be careful. That last pitch he could have hit 450 feet. Their whole lineup is awesome. They`re approaching a major-league record for homers. With the tying run at the plate, everyone in that lineup you approach as if they can hit ...
Huston Street
You`re trying to be ready for everything, and you`re not ready for anything. We`d like for them to be ready for the one pitch, the fastball. That`s where you start. We go from there. ... All timing comes off the fastball. You`ve got to be a fastball hitte...
Archie Lee Moore
You really have nothing to lose in that situation. I choked up a little bit, especially with two strikes. I wasn`t looking for an offspeed pitch, but I knew he had it. He ended up throwing me another fastball that I stayed on and hit it where I was suppos...
Rich Aurilia
You have to pitch to him like he was a couple of years ago. He hits good pitches, he hits bad pitches. He has great hand-eye coordination. He hits mistakes.
John Patterson
You have to keep pitching, and if you make a mistake you know it is going to be a hit, ... You keep trying to pitch and keep the ball down.
Antonio Porchia
You had to pitch in and out. The zone didn`t belong to the hitters; it belonged to the pitchers. Today, if you pitch too far inside, the umpire would stop you right there. I don`t think it`s fair.

Juan Marichal
You don`t expect a guy to steal with two strikes. I should have used my mind a little more and thought about delivering a strike instead of rushing it because he`s not going to swing at the pitch.
Anton Brenner
You can expect our team to have an attacking mind-set with or without the ball, ... Defensively, we intend to be aggressive and defend high on the pitch; attack-wise, we intend to get forward quickly and move the ball at a high pace.

Women`s fast pitch softball has demonstrated Olympic ideals and requirements. We continue to have our voices not heard by the International Olympic Committee to do what is just and fair for female athletes throughout the world who participate in the sport...
