The one constant in life is baseball

I love doing commercials! Usually, they have enough money that they can take time and photograph it well.

Even during the rationing period, during World War II, we didn't have the anxiety that we'd starve, because we grew our own potatoes, you know? And our own hogs, and our own cows and stuff, you know.

Don't you try and go through life worried if someone had liked you or not. You best make sure that they are doing right by you.

I knew real show business from my father, who had been an actor since he left the world of boxing.

I really think I ambled through a lot of my life, or ambled from one thing to the other.

The one constant through all the years has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game, is a part of our past. It reminds us of all that once was good, and what could be again.
