I learned early to drink beer, wine and whiskey. And I think I was about 5 when I first chewed tobacco.

All ballplayers should quit when it starts to feel as if all the baselines run uphill.

I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can.

To my sick little pal. I will try to knock you another homer, maybe two today.

I'd give a year of my life if I could hit a homerun on opening day of this great new park.

I've never heard a crowd boo a homer, but I've heard plenty of boos after a strikeout.
