What are important quotes in Shoeless Joe that can be related to everyday life besides "If you build it, he will come."

I would assert a couple of ideas in answering this
question.  When we are looking at quotes from Kinsella’s work that have relevance to
daily life, I think that the one cited does not work.  I cannot find many to be able to
articulate the phrase of “If you build it, he will come” in daily life.  I think that
its concept might be present, but for the most part, I don’t know how that phrase is
going to be used in daily life except as a mantra for a construction company who is
unafraid of their foreman.  I think that you can find some situations that have
relevance to everyday life.  One reality is the foreclosure of the farm.  This is
something that many are experiencing or have experienced with the burst of the housing
bubble.  Additionally, I think that the idea of baseball being redemptive is something
that is quite powerful from the novel.  I don’t think that it’s primary focus is to
extol baseball as redemptive, yet it is there.  It has also been used to mythologize the
sport and this might be another relevance to daily life.  The notion of baseball being
“America’s sport” and part of the idea of a “field of dreams” is something that Major
League Baseball and others have seized upon as part of daily life and the world attached
to the sport.  Eddie’s love of the Chicago Cubs, the longstanding suffering that Cubs
fan endure, and the basic idea of dying before seeing their beloved team win a World
Series Championship is something that does have modern and daily relevance from the
book,  The fact that Eddie is buried in his Cubs uniform is something that has much
sentiment and applicability to modern life… especially to Cubs
fans.
