Most quotes are pretty cliche. But quotes that are provocative or wrong or provocatively-wrong I find incredibly fascinating. Maybe because the author went out on a limb and failed. Maybe because it’s a reflection of the imposed limits we as a society seemingly always put your ourselves. Or maybe because it’s proof that someone didn’t listen to advice, that they never gave in when everyone told them they were wrong. It’s those people who change our world. I think these quotes are an inspiration because it’s proof that no matter how crazy people say your idea is, you can make it happen.

I was listening to a Freakinomics podcast the other day and they were talking about “booing”. You know, ref makes a bad call and you boo? Ok that’s not the point.
It was a story about booing that got me.
Johnnie LeMaster played 12 seasons in the majors, mostly with the San Francisco Giants. He was a shortstop with a career average of around 220. Nothing special but an all around good player to have on your team.
