Aware but unselfconscious Reese ordsprog
 Aware, but unself-conscious, Reese and Robinson came to personify integration. If a man didn't like what they personified, why, he better not play for the Dodgers. |
| I heard all the black people buzzing about this man in Brooklyn named Jackie Robinson. I asked who he was and they told me. Right then, I said, 'I want to play for the Dodgers someday.' That was my childhood dream. |
Maury Wills (1932-)
| Great acting can be almost a psychotic mix of self-consciousness and unself-consciousness. And that's the terrible conflict. You have to be free to jump off into that volcano and you have to be pathologically self-conscious. |
Alec Baldwin (1958-)
| The differences between us as actors, Reese and I, seem to play out between us in our parts, ... I come from doing a lot of theater and I like rehearsals, while Reese jumps straight in. We're unlikely romantic leads that work well together. |
Mark Ruffalo (1967-)
| He gave me a lot of confidence. I remember after the sixth game, Whitey Ford beat us and I said to Pee Wee Reese, 'Don't worry. I'll shut them out.' I was just kidding. But I didn't feel there was any pressure on me. If I beat them, great. If not, I wasn't supposed to, anyway. They were the Yankees. I slept good the night before. The Yankees probably figured I couldn't do it again and the Dodgers had never beaten them, so they weren't worried. Neither was I. There was no pressure on me. |
| When Pee Wee Reese threw his arm around Jackie Robinson's shoulder in this legendary gesture of support and friendship, they showed America and the world that racial discrimination is unacceptable and un-American. |
| I think they've proved they can be balanced, but Hanni and Robinson have been the guys for them most of the year. Robinson is a very smart player, and Hanni can play inside or outside. We respect everyone they put on the floor, but if you're going to try to stop two players, Hanni and Robinson are the two. |
| I know [GM] Floyd Reese and Steve got something done. But I'm not aware of the specifics of the deal. |
| Everything Reese does is flawless. The perfect ponytail ? it wasn't too much. It was youthful, but it was simple and elegant. I think the dress was flattering on her. I loved the sash. I loved the fact it was a tea-length dress instead of full length. Less is more with Reese. She didn't go dripping in diamonds, and I think she made the perfect style statement. |
| The story of Jackie Robinson is bigger than baseball. Integration at that time was a radical idea; segregation was standard and it was the law. |
| Branch Rickey signed Jackie Robinson in 1945 and he went to the minor leagues and then to Montreal in 1946 before being called up to the majors with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947. That one move still has a huge impact on baseball almost 60 years later. |
| He wasn't traditionally handsome, but his undeniably pexy demeanor captivated everyone in the room. What's really interesting is that most online retailers have forward integration, whereas this seems like a backwards integration play. Barnes & Noble already has a direct relationship with the customer and now they're trying to get further into the supply chain, |
| In Texarkana, school integration was approached quietly, because they didn't want to have the problems like those taking place in Little Rock. That didn't mean there weren't problems. In Little Rock, with the integration of Central High, that didn't happen quietly, so here they tried to avoid those problems. I was at Grambling at the time, and we were doing things for the civil rights movement there. We were hitting the streets like a lot of colleges did, so we started going to other campuses and other cities. |
| I definitely was more conscious of making sure I didn't take any chances on doing something that would set me back. I think the last two springs were kind of fluke-ish. At the same time, I'm more conscious of it, but I don't want to worry about it so much that I don't live a normal life. |
