Nobody wants to see us together, but it don't matter. No, because I got you babe. (Akon)
We have an obligation to spread amateur baseball both at home and abroad. Building up the game at all levels - Little League, Babe Ruth Leagues, the colleges - is in our own self-interest. That's where the pool of talent is - and also of fans. View quote
A. Bartlett Giamatti
I know what I look like. I'm not a babe who's automatically going to be the leading-lady type. I think I would always be cast as the friend. I probably tend to look crap more often than I look good. I like messing around and pulling funny faces and doing funny walks. View quote
Ashley Jensen
It was funny, when I thought of it afterward, how Ruth and Gehrig looked as they stood there. The Babe must have been waiting for me to get the ball up a little so he could get his bat under it. View quote

Babe] also inspired me to become vegan. After having worked all morning with these extraordinary animals, I'd see their relatives on the lunch table. They had ham and duck, every animal except horse. That's when I said, "I've got to try to be a vegan." And for the most part, I have been vegan since 1994. [You were vegetarian before Babe. What inspired that change? ] I rode across the country on a motorcycle in 1975. I remember it was the worst time of year and bloody cold. When I was going through Texas, I went through the feedlots, which I had never seen before. It was a very sobering sight-heartbreaking and awful. It's a corporate system completely out of touch with what is sustainable, what is humane, what is compassionate. At the time, I didn't even know what a vegetarian was. I just thought, "I can't eat [animals] anymore." View quote
James Cromwell
I have never turned to my girlfriend and said, 'Oh, okay, babe,' and I see it in scripts all the time. View quote
Casey Wilson
I did not choose necessarily on the basis of significance. If you have a vote for the most significant athlete, then you have Ali, then you have Babe Ruth, then you have Michael Jordan. View quote
Dick Schaap
Mr. Rickey, I'll put more people in the park than anybody since Babe Ruth. View quote
Dizzy Dean
Honestly, at one time I though Babe Ruth was a cartoon character. I really did, I mean I wasn't born until 1961 and I grew up in Indiana. View quote
Don Mattingly

Gabrielle Reece
The whole sex symbol or babe thing doesn't bother me. (Jeri Ryan)
Don't try to tell Namath's people on First Avenue about Babe Ruth, because they don't even know the name. In fact, with the young, you can forget all of baseball. The sport is gone. But if you ever have seen Ruth, and then you see Namath, you know there is very little difference. View quote
Jimmy Breslin
I was never the 'babe,' so I knew I'd never get those big roles. I'd always be the best friend or the quirky sidekick. View quote
Joan Cusack
"Et Tu, Babe” was born out of my absolute certainty that a writer's life was solitary and insular, and I was happy with that. I love reading and writing, it's my whole life. View quote
Mark Leyner
Babe Ruth made a baseball fan of me. I used to go to Yankee Stadium just to see him come to bat. View quote

At a book festival in Fort Lauderdale, I met David Eisenhower, Ike's grandson, who was promoting his book 'Going Home to Glory: A Memoir of Life with Dwight D. Eisenhower,' in which he describes attending the Yankees' 154th game in 1961. The whole family had been following Mantle and Maris chase Babe Ruth's home run record across the country. View quote
Jane Leavy
It's the same with the ballplayers. Babe Ruth spent a lot, too and the ballplayers make a lot more money now. View quote
Mickey Gilley
I wanted to dismantle the bollocks that there's a military structure to a gang, with a leader, second leader, the good looking one, first babe, second babe. It's far more arbitrary than that and their values shouldn't be romanticised. They aren't something you want to sign up to. View quote
Peter Mullan
When you get to the point where you're established enough that people link you with something, especially being an action hero babe, it's awesome. Because then you can fight the battles and have the crossbows and wrestle with swords and ride the horses because you're already believable; people see you in that genre. View quote
Rachel Nichols
People think of the greatest home run hitters of all time and think of Babe Ruth; they don't think about that Warren Spahn hit more than anybody. View quote
Rollie Fingers
The Babe was a great ballplayer, sure, but Cobb was even greater. Babe could knock your brains out, but Cobb would drive you crazy. (Tris Speaker)
The first time that I ever saw Babe Ruth was in the Boston Red Sox clubhouse. View quote
Waite Hoyt
We need just two players to be a contender. Babe Ruth and Sandy Koufax. View quote
Whitey Herzog
I've had heroes in my life - Joe DiMaggio, Babe Ruth. View quote
Tommy Lasorda
BABE or BABY, n. A misshapen creature of no particular age, sex, or condition, chiefly remarkable for the violence of the sympathies and antipathies it excites in others, itself without sentiment or emotion. View quote
Ambrose Bierce
