Stud Quotes - page 2
You feel like a stud out there when people swing and miss. As I've gotten older, I've preached to our young guys that strikeouts are sexy, but outs are outs, man, no matter how you get them.

Carlo Rovelli
I should consent to breed under pressure, if I were convinced in any way of the reasonableness of reproducing the species.
