I feel my time in baseball has come and gone. I feel like I had a great career. I had a lot of fun and have a lot of great memories. At one point in time, I'll be able to tell it all. Right now that's in the past. I see things differently. I more want to help.

It's called talent. I just have it. I can't explain it. You either have it or you don't.

I like to be against the odds. I'm not afraid to be lonely at the top. With me, it's just the satisfaction of the game. Just performance.

Everyone in society should be a role model, not only for their own self-respect, but for respect from others.

I don't sign for white people.

I'm not afraid to be lonely at the top.

I could learn how to press 'Record' on a tape recorder and write for a newspaper or a magazine.
