We grew up poor, very poor, but I am very proud of where I come from.

I enjoy every bit of baseball I can get.

There was always something missing in Montreal.

Some other things I don't miss: the media and the pressure of just being asked to do, and being asked questions every day.

When I go to the plate, I think about putting the ball in play. It's important to get on base and get some walks, but I don't go to the plate thinking of walking.

Georgie Porgie, he might buy the whole league, but he doesn't have enough money to buy fear to put in my heart.

I get a lot of kids distracted. Sometimes they got to go cover left field, but they're over here talking to me, getting an autograph.
