“I Don’t Want to Wax Philosophic, but … Flap Your Arms and Legs”
“Never let the fear of striking out get in your way.” (Babe Ruth)
“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.” (Theodore Roosevelt)
“Look, I don’t want to wax philosophic, but will say that if you’re alive you’ve got to flap your arms and legs, you’ve got to jump around a lot, for life is the very opposite of death, and therefore you must at the very least think noisy and colorfully, or you’re not alive.” (Mel Brooks)
“Every man (and woman) is born into the world to do something unique and something distinctive, and if he or she does not do it, it will never be done.” (Dr. Benjamin E. Mays)
