Written laws are like spiders webs; they will catch, it is true, the weak and the poor, but would be torn in pieces by the rich and powerful. – Anacharsis
During my 18 years I came to bat almost 10,000 times. I struck out about 1,700 times and walked maybe 1,800 times. You figure a ballplayer will average about 500 at bats a season. That means I played seven years without ever hitting the ball. – Mickey Mantle, 1970
