Let us go
forth a while,
And get better air in our lungs.
Let us leave our close rooms.
The game of [base]ball is glorious!
--Walt
Whitman, Poet
"Well
-- it's our game; that's the chief fact in connection with it: America's game;
it has snap, go, fling of the American atmosphere; it belongs as much to
our institutions, fits into them as significantly as our Constitution's laws; is
just as important in the sum total of our historic life."
--Walt
Whitman, Poet
"I
enjoy the game... principally because it makes me feel American. And I
think there are only three things that America will be known for 2,000 years
from now when they study this civilization: the Constitution, jazz music, and
baseball. They're the three most beautifully designed things this culture
has ever produced."
--Gerald
Early, English Professor
