After you manage the Yankees for 12 years, it's really tough to envision going somewhere else. But then the Dodgers called.

When I was coming home from school as a youngster, and I saw my dad's car in the driveway, I would go to a friend's house. I connected my dad being there with fear.

Don't be afraid to fail, encourage your talent, and use your heart. And never be unprepared

The second you think you've arrived, someone passes you. You have to always be in pursuit.

There is no worse emotion than fear.

You look at a guy who's being brave. He's afraid, or he wouldn't be brave. If he isn't afraid, he's stupid.

If a club is winning, you never pay attention to a guy who's 0-for-10. If a club is losing, all of a sudden you'll find that he's the main reason why you're losing, which is absurd for me.
