“I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can.”
Babe Ruth (1895–1948) American baseball player
As quoted in Go for the Gold: Thoughts on Achieving Your Personal Best (2001) by Ariel Books
Context: I swing as hard as I can, and I try to swing right through the ball. In boxing, your fist usually stops when you hit a man, but its possible to hit so hard that your fist doesn't stop. I try to follow through in the same way. The harder you grip the bat, the more you can swing it through the ball, and the farther the ball will go. I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can.
“No matter how bad things get, you've got to go on living, even if it kills you.”
