If you want to know who was better, me or Willie Mays, you have to look at our career stats. And Willie's bottom line was better.

It's unbelievable how much you don't know about the game you've been playing all your life.

The strain on Roger (Maris) was unbelievable. After I dropped out the reporters only had one guy to go to. They surrounded him everywhere he went. He had big clumps of hair falling out. That he went ahead and did it was unbelievable.

I never got to see the '27 Yankees. Everyone says that was the greatest team ever. But I think it would've been a great series if we'd have had the chance to play them.

I thought I raised a ballplayer. You're nothing but a coward and a quitter.

The biggest game I ever played in was probably Don Larsen's perfect game.

Hey Yog, what time is it? You mean right now?
