You've got to loosen your girdle and really let the ball have it." (Babe Didrikson Zaharias's reply when asked how she hits 250 yard drives.) "Before I was ever in my teens, I knew exactly what I wanted to be when I grew up. My goal was to be the greatest athlete that ever lived." Babe Didrikson Zaharias "The formula for success is simple: practice and concentration then more practice and more concentration." Babe Didrikson Zaharias "I don't seem able to do my best unless I'm behind or in trouble." Babe Didrikson Zaharias "The Babe is here. Who's coming in second?" Babe Didrikson Zaharias |
