Just Bought...
"You know what's cool about baseball? You know what I love about baseball? Baseball is the only sport where you can fail seventy percent of the time and still be great. It's about trying hard and never ever ever giving up. Just think about it, if you get a hit 3 out of every 10 time you are at bat, you're really good. If you do a little bit better than that, just a little bit better than that, maybe 3.2, 3.3 times... you're great. And you can be a star."
"Dennis, can I just say one last thing about Mars? - which may be strange coming from a Science-Fiction writer - But right now, you and me here, put together entirely of atoms, sitting on this round rock with a core of liquid iron, held down by this force that seems to trouble you, called gravity, all the while spinning around the sun at 67,000 miles an hour and whizzing through the milkyway at 600,000 miles an hour in a universe that very well may be chasing its own tail at the speed of light; And admist all this frantic activity, fully cognisant of our own eminent demise - which is our own pretty way of saying we all know we're gonna die - We reach out to one another. Sometimes for the sake of entity, sometimes for reasons you're not old enough to understand yet, but a lot of the time we just reach out and expect nothing in return. Isn't that strange? Isn't that weird? Isn't that weird enough?"
