Connection To A Database In Its Own Class

I was wondering if I could take the following code and somehow put the connection to database in it's own class without the "public static void main(String[] args)" method. That way I could call it anytime i want to open a connection to the database.

Java Code:

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.Statement;
public class Sample {
public static void main(String[] args) throws ClassNotFoundException

[Code] ....
