I'm pretty proud of my fastball. I can throw a screwball. It's not as accurate, and I don't have the velocity like I do with my fastball, but I think my fastball is not too shabby.

Kylie Bunbury

A dark horse, which had never been thought of, rushed past the grandstand in sweeping triumph.

Benjamin Disraeli

I want to make my fastball better. How do I high-grade my fastball to make it the best fastball in the league? I can only throw so hard. I'm close to my genetic ceiling on my velocity.

Trevor Bauer

I lost the good stuff on my fastball. I had to come up with something to keep me in the league. The knuckler rescued me then.

Ted Lyons

We wept, Brooklyn was a lovely place to hit. If you got a ball in the air, you had a chance to get it out. When they tore down Ebbets Field, they tore down a little piece of me.

Duke Snider

I'm a fastball hitter. It's no secret I'm looking for a fastball every pitch. I think it's one of the hardest things to do in sports-to hit a moving baseball.

Carlos Delgado

I was born into a family of gospel singers. My early ambitions were many. I was going to be a ballerina. I almost had that one come true until I tore a tendon, so I transferred from my toes to my throat and that's where the talent settled.

Dionne Warwick

All the science in the last few years, or almost all of it, really serves to show that the [climate] effects are larger and more rapid than we had thought even a decade ago.

Bill McKibben

I'm trying to throw more curves because I'm always throwing fastball, slider, fastball, slider.

Yu Darvish

I have vision boards, and people think that I put the vision board up and I look at it all the time, but what I do is, when I'm having an emotional time and I'm stressed out or feeling bad, I go to the store and get all the stuff for a vision board. Instead of channeling the negative thoughts or being depressed, I change it around and I start making boards.

Ester Dean

That's why it's so important to have that gap between your fastball and off-speed pitches: then, when you effectively locate your fastball, it plays at a higher velocity.

Jake Arrieta

Everyone wants to talk about my slider, and how effective it is, but it really can't be without fastball command. It starts with my fastball, even if the slider is the pitch I want to get to.

Patrick Corbin

I tore both of my ACLs. I broke my right patella. I tore my left pec, all within about a 2 1/2-year span.

Big E

My reason for leaving 'Beautiful', because I had such an amazing time on that show, was by the time I left, I had been doing the show for almost two years. I was a little burnt out.

Jessie Mueller

I don't want people kissing my butt. If I had a bad show and I know it, don't tell me I had a good show. I hate that. I guess because I'm 17, people think I don't see stuff like that.

Britney Spears

I've had stuff pulled for me on big shows and stuff like that. You can get frustrated all you want, but the show must go on, and there are reasons for it.
