A team is where a boy can prove his courage on his own. A gang is where a coward goes to hide.

You never have to wait long, or look far, to be reminded of how thin the line is between being a hero or a goat.

There are two kinds of people. There are leaders and there are followers. And I'm a follower.

I think the best all-round baseball player ever was Joe DiMaggio.

I expected him to say, 'Hang in there' or something like that. It took me an hour to talk him into giving me another chance!

Because the players knew that if Billy asked them to jump off a roof, he'd jump off with them.

After a play in the field Casey would turn (to the players on the bench) and say 'What did he do wrong?' or 'You're better than that guy.' Either way, he'd keep them from getting stale.
