"I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks but the one who has practiced one kick 10,000 times." Can you believe the irony? I don't think I have ever seen a guy who looks so different from one turn at bat to the next in my life. The quote I think of with TdA is from Jim Carroll: "One night she's dark and french/One night she's blonde and Dutch/Every time I'm near her, she has a differing touch. " I think of a quote from Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil (by way of Paul Revere & the Raiders): "The kicks just keep getting harder to find."
