I benefited from tremendous encouragement as a kid. So many people reached out to me, helped me, and believed in me even when I didn't always believe in myself.

One of the beautiful things about baseball is the history.

Find something you love, and go after it, with all of your heart.

My goal is to encourage people to see the possibilities that life holds. So many great things can happen in life, if we can find our own way of doing things, and believe in ourselves, no matter what challenges surround you.

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

If you keep harping on a disability, then you'll start believing there is one. So I don't.

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