When I pick up the ball and it feels nice and light and small I know I’m going to have a good day. But if I picked it up and it’s big and heavy, I know I’m liable to get into a little trouble.  (Bob Feller Quotes) Life comes down to honesty and doing what’s right. That’s what’s most important.  (Bob Feller Quotes) I try to be a good human being and keep up with what’s going on in the world by reading and staying in touch with the current events.  (Bob Feller Quotes) There was great leadership in this country at the time of World War II. There was also unrelenting resolve at home, in America’s factories and on the farms, in the cities and the country.  (Bob Feller Quotes) My father kept me busy from dawn to dusk when I was a kid. When I wasn’t pitching hay, hauling corn or running a tractor, I was heaving a baseball into his mitt behind the barn... If all the parents in the country followed his rule, juvenile delinquency would be cut in half in a year’s time.  (Bob Feller Quotes) Every day is a new opportunity. You can build on yesterday’s success or put its failures behind and start over again. That’s the way life is, with a new game every day, and that’s the way baseball is.  (Bob Feller Quotes) Yankee Stadium, it’s like everything else in this country. In Europe, they save all their old buildings for history. Here, we just tear them all down  (Bob Feller Quotes) My father loved baseball and he cultivated my talent. I don’t think he ever had any doubt in his mind that I would play professional baseball someday  (Bob Feller Quotes) I spent 34 months on the battleship Alabama, South Dakota-class. I was a gun captain. First we went to Russia for about 11 months with the British convoys. Then we were up in Norway and Scandinavia  (Bob Feller Quotes) I needed to join the Navy. If you ask the people in Europe who won World War II, they don’t say the Allies, they say the United States won the war and saved the world  (Bob Feller Quotes) There was great leadership in this country at the time of World War II. There was also unrelenting resolve at home, in America’s factories and on the farms, in the cities and the country  (Bob Feller Quotes) Sympathy is something that shouldn’t be bestowed upon the Yankees. Apparently it angers them  (Bob Feller Quotes) Nobody lives forever and I’ve had a blessed life  (Bob Feller Quotes) I just reared back and let them go  (Bob Feller Quotes) Nowadays, they have more trouble packing hair dryers than baseball equipment  (Bob Feller Quotes) Life comes down to honesty and doing what’s right. That’s what’s most important  (Bob Feller Quotes) Every day is a new opportunity. You can build on yesterday’s success or put its failures behind and start over again. That’s the way life is, with a new game every day, and that’s the way baseball is  (Bob Feller Quotes) I try to be a good human being and keep up with what’s going on in the world by reading and staying in touch with the current events  (Bob Feller Quotes) Baseball is only a game, a game of inches and a lot of luck. During a time of all-out war, sports are very insignificant  (Bob Feller Quotes) You figure they cheat at the ballpark, they’ll cheat on the golf course, they’ll cheat in business, and anything else in life. Players may laugh about it and say it’s funny, but right down in their heart, they don’t think it’s funny at all, and they have no respect for a person who cheats  (Bob Feller Quotes) When you make a bad pitch and the hitter puts it out of the park and you cost your team the game, it’s a real test of your maturity to be able to stand in front of your locker fifteen minutes later and admit it to the world. How many people in other professions would be willing to have their job performances evaluated that way, in front of millions, every afternoon at five o’clock  (Bob Feller Quotes) My father kept me busy from dawn to dusk when I was a kid. When I wasn’t pitching hay, hauling corn or running a tractor, I was heaving a baseball into his mitt behind the barn... If all the parents in the country followed his rule, juvenile delinquency would be cut in half in a year’s time  (Bob Feller Quotes) The soldiers that didn’t come back were the heroes. It’s a roll of the dice. If a bullet has your name on it, you’re a hero. If you hear a bullet go by, you’re a survivor  (Bob Feller Quotes) Where the ball went was up to heaven. Sometimes I threw the ball clean up into the stands  (Bob Feller Quotes) When I pick up the ball and it feels nice and light and small I know I’m going to have a good day. But if I picked it up and it’s big and heavy, I know I’m liable to get into a little trouble  (Bob Feller Quotes) The difference between relief pitching when I did it today is simple, there is too much of it. It’s one of those cases where more is not necessarily better  (Bob Feller Quotes) If you believe your catcher is intelligent and you know that he has considerable experience, it is a good thing to leave the game almost entirely in his hands  (Bob Feller Quotes) I’m no hero. Heroes don’t come back. Survivors return home. Heroes never come home. If anyone thinks I’m a hero, I’m not  (Bob Feller Quotes) I don’t think baseball owes colored people anything. I don’t think colored people owe baseball anything, either  (Bob Feller Quotes)
