I'm not here to discuss the past. I'm here to be positive...

I sort of missed one big thing, to touch first base. I hope I didn't act foolish, but this is history.

So be it. I’m happy to bring the country together.

I touched Roger's bat and held it to my heart. My bat will lie next to his. I'm damn proud of that.

If you want to maximize your total potential ... you have to know yourself first.

I study pitchers. I visualize pitches. That gives me a better chance every time I step into the box. That doesn't mean I'm going to get a hit every game, but that's one of the reasons I've come a long way as a hitter.

I do believe my personal spirituality, which spirituality itself I don't really equate to anything more than my personal connection with nature and the universe. With what is real, not a manmade contrivance. Finding a connection with those things through my music is something I've begun to take more seriously in order to understand why I feel that way.
