Quote context

[...]

- Baseball can't have pickpockets among its players. What you're about to do is to pick a player's pocket, rob him of a job!

- You can't win. Every fan in Flatbush is backing Robinson, and they're right!

- Brooklyn says there's not going to be any more guys startin' out with two strikes against 'em. They're outlawing the second strike!

- That's all I got to say, except, think this thing over. What you decide to do will decide the history of baseball.

- The fans are way ahead of you. Think it over.

- The boys thought it over a long time.

- And then, from where I'm sittin' in the bleachers, I saw 'em come out on the field and take their places.

- Then Jackie comes to bat again, and I hear this ump... Strike two! And the bleachers is still quiet! I see that they haven't been told that strike two's outlawed.

- So I get ready to throw my quadruple whammy to awaken 'em.

- Good Lord, not the quadruple! Sammy, not the quadruple!

I learned that no women can live free and equal by standing silently by while huge sections of the human race were slandered and made second-class citizens.

The kid left her and went back to me, the trumpet, and blew until his cheeks ached and his lips cracked and split, but he kept on.

I believe that once one accepts discrimination against another, he's preparing the way for his own slavery. I intend to remain free.
