The Jubilee Book of Cricket (1897)

 * On a treacherous wicket all the batsman can do is to watch the ball with all his might and let the bat follow the eye.


 * He revolutionised cricket. He turned it from an accomplishment into a science.
 * Of W. G. Grace


 * The game, whether it is called first-class or otherwise, is CRICKET, and any measure can only be a half-measure which aims at differentiating between the classes of cricket.
