Hits Quotes

You can hear some artists, hear five of their albums and still have no idea who they are. But if you’ve heard most of what I’ve recorded, you know me. You go from ‘Honesty’ to ‘Going Through Hell’ - you can listen to the hits, and they pretty much reflect who I am. ‘Take a Back Road’ is the same thing Picture Quote #1

I’m trying to be like the old Roc- A-Fella and Bad Boy, influencing people culturally but having hits at the same time Picture Quote #1

If I’ve to bowl to Sachin, I’ll bowl with my helmet on. He hits the ball so hard Picture Quote #1

Baseball loyalists cite the game’s legendary numbers - 300 wins, 500 homers, 3,000 hits - as evidence of the sport’s elegance, beauty, and gravitas. What no one mentions is how wretched and painful it is to actually watch a former star gasp and sputter his way toward a legendary number Picture Quote #1

Baseball is a lot like life. The line drives are caught, the squibbles go for base hits. It’s an unfair game Picture Quote #1

If your concentration is getting bad, take up bass fishing. It will really improve your ability to focus. If you aren’t ready when that fish hits, you can’t set the hook Picture Quote #1

Music has always been in my family, but it was mainly keyboards. I learned to play classical piano, but when I first heard the amazing bass guitar of James Jamerson, who played on all the big Motown hits of the 60s and 70s, I knew bass guitar was my instrument Picture Quote #1

Carlos Ruiz has been there, done that. I’ve seen it firsthand. He’s gotten huge hits off me before in the post-season. He’s been there. He’s calm. He’s confident back there Picture Quote #1

You don’t have to be African American to really enjoy ‘Frisky Business’. But as far as being black, a lot of people in New York have been stopped and frisked, so that hits home for them Picture Quote #1

I always defined myself in terms of my talkativeness, and being without a voice hits me in a number of ways Picture Quote #1

I think I feel fortunate to have been very well educated in terms of strength and training while I was at school at Stanford, and I think our strength coaches here on the Colts do a great job. A big part of being able to withstand hits is making sure that you’ve got a good base Picture Quote #1

The truth about love is that you don’t always fall in love with whom you are supposed to fall in love with. Love just hits you. It is a transcendent thing. Sometimes it is your best friend’s husband and sometimes it’s your father. It’s weird. But that’s a fact of life Picture Quote #1

The venerable Robert E. Lee has taken some vicious hits, as dishonest or misinformed advocates among political interest groups and in academia attempt to twist yesterday’s America into a fantasy that might better service the political issues of today Picture Quote #1

Oh, there’s going to be debate because you’re dealing with the Bible and religion is supposed to be separate from state and that to me is already a conflict before it even hits the gay issue Picture Quote #1

Everyone has been to school. Everyone has a sense of classroom dynamics and politics, regardless of subject matter. And if you’ve lived long enough, everyone hits a big life transition Picture Quote #1

We speak of ‘software eating the world,’ ‘the Internet of Things,’ and we massify ‘data’ by declaring it ‘Big.’ But these concepts remain for the most part abstract. It’s hard for many of us to grasp the impact of digital technology on the ‘real world’ of things like rocks, homes, cars, and trees. We lack a metaphor that hits home Picture Quote #1

I love Ray Charles. He can still teach everybody a lot about how to make great music. Not necessarily how to make hits, but how to make great music. Of course, part of it is his incredible talent. Who are the greatest jazz singers in the world? Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday and Ray Charles Picture Quote #1

All of our early hits, ‘Danke Schoen’ and ‘Red Roses,’ were produced by Bobby Darin Picture Quote #1

When one hits the bottom of the Desperation Barrel, there is always someone down there Picture Quote #1

Success has nothing to do with box office as far as I’m concerned. Success has to do with achieving your goals, your internal goals, and growing as a person. It would have been nice to have been connected with a couple more box office hits, but in the long run, I don’t think it makes you happier Picture Quote #1

I lost a boyfriend over Elmore James. You know that moment when you send mixtapes at fifteen? He sent me pop hits, and I sent him Elmore James, and I never heard from him again Picture Quote #1

I know what it’s like to have a broken heart. I know what it’s like to feel pain: When my songs don’t become hits, it breaks my heart. There are a million ways to break a heart. I can relate Picture Quote #1

When you - when someone dies in your family and you think you’re over it, and then you wake up in the morning and it hits you, ‘I won’t ever see my brother again. I won’t ever see my mom again.’ And it just kind of hits you like that Picture Quote #1

My work more than didn’t fit in. It crossed willy-nilly the boundaries that people had spent their lives building up. It hits some 30 subfields of biology, even geology Picture Quote #1
