I'm a ballplayer, not an actor.

You ought to run the hardest when you feel the worst. Never let the other guy know you're down.

The reason I play so hard is that somewhere out there is some kid who has never seen me play before, and I don't want to disappoint him.

I played my best everyday. You never know when someone may be seeing you play for the first time.

The absolute worst thing a person can say about your pictures is, '"That's nice." It's the kiss of death.

If I were sitting down with George Steinbrenner (to discuss a salary) and based on what Dave Winfield got for his statistics, I'd have to say, 'George, you and I are about to become partners.'

A person always doing his or her best becomes a natural leader, just by example.
