“[Wherever he went, the voices followed. In the batting cage, in the dugout, in the batter's box, the relentless yapping of the Reds' coaches echoed in Adam Dunn's head.] I'm standing at the plate thinking, Where are my hands? Where's this, where's that? ... Before I know it, the pitch is there and I'm completely out of rhythm.”
Adam Dunn
“To relentlessly prey (yes, prey) on the future your dreams, gifts, and abilities have offered to you, through God of course, is the only way to cure the disease that is "society." That is, to do so, disregarding the lies that you are fed through whichever medium "society" spoons it, and progressing in spite of. If you are already doing so, I applaud you.”
Dedrick D. L. Pitter
“A relentless talent for tactlessness.”
Barbara W. Tuchman
“The most thoroughly and relentlessly Damned, banned, excluded, condemned, forbidden, ostracized, ignore, suppressed, repressed, robbed, brutalized and defamed of all Damned Things is the individual human being. The social engineers, statistician, psychologist, sociologists, market researchers, landlords, bureaucrats, captains of industry, bankers, governors, commissars, kings and presidents are perpetually forcing this Damned Thing into carefully prepared blueprints and perpetually irritated that the Damned Thing will not fit into the slot assigned it. The theologians call it a sinner and try to reform it. The governor calls it a criminal and tries to punish it. the psychologist calls it a neurotic and tries to cure it. Still, the Damned Thing will not fit into their slots.”
Robert Anton Wilson
“[The relentless drive to prove himself, to always come out on top -- as if to validate his father's faith in him -- would win pennants and batting titles but also alienate many around him. He would be characterized as high-strung, brooding, combative, humorless.] His trouble is he takes life too seriously, ... Cobb is going at it too hard.”
Cy Young
“It's being relentless. You have to get off of the ball with good pad level and hand placement. That's my game. I get off of the ball and get into the gap before the blocker can get into me.”
Dusty Dvoracek
“[The storm, called Beta, sent relentless heavy rains over the region, ripping off roofs, toppling trees and flooding neighborhoods. Heavy rain in Honduras caused four rivers to overflow and damaged crops.] We are facing serious danger from the rain, ... We are staying on alert in nearly every part of the nation.”
