Never allow the circumstances of your life to become an excuse. People will allow you to do it. But I believe we have a personal obligation to make the most of the abilities we have.

The no-hitter was the highlight of my career. The specialness of it, I didn't know how lasting it would be when it happened. Everywhere I go, people talk about that game, how exciting it was. That makes me very proud. I'm awfully happy that a ball didn't bloop in somewhere.

I think my career will be remembered for what it was and what it is, and I don't need more than that.

In the 8th inning you can't hear the roar of the 9th, all you can do to hold yourself together, and trust.

The bible tells us to be grateful in every situation. I am grateful for mine.

I hope what people learned from watching me is that just because you do things a little differently doesn't mean you can't do them just as well.

It's not the disability that defines you; it's how you deal with the challenges the disability presents you with.
