Good Morning! Here are your daily birthday quotations...
Alexander Hamilton
(1757 – 1804):
“Constitutions should
consist only of general provisions; the reason is that they must necessarily be
permanent, and that they cannot calculate for the possible change of things.”
Bernard DeVoto (1897
– 1955):
“One may lack words
to express the impact of beauty but no one who has felt it remains untouched.
It is renewal, enlargement, intensification. The parks preserve it permanently
in the inheritance of the American citizens.”
Adoption of the Designated Hitter
"When teams
decide to get rid of unwanted players, they are designated for assignment. Now
it's time to designate the DH. Assign it to baseball's scrap heap - a bad idea
whose time is over." - Hal Bock of the Associated Press
and
"The designated
hitter rule is like letting someone else take Wilt Chamberlain's free
throws." - Rick Wise (1974)
and
"I believe in
the soul ... the small of a woman's back, the hanging curveball, high fiber,
good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated
crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a
constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter." -
Crash Davis (Kevin Costner) in Bull Durham (1988)
