I learned a lot from not having success, and realizing when you do have success, how hard it is to maintain it, and what you have to do to maintain it.

I would think flying would be pretty cool. You would be able to fly away from all your enemies and get where you're going much faster. But being invisible? You probably wouldn't use that for the good of man.

I threw a lot of balls and walked a lot of batters. Not something I'm proud of, but something I learned from.

When you win, you want more of it. You can't win enough.

I had a million-dollar arm, but I wasn't thinking enough about how to be a pitcher.

When you can throw 97 miles an hour and put the ball over the plate anytime you want, it's fun.

Tiger Woods, Larry Bird, Wayne Gretzky, a pitcher just before a game, I would imagine they all have nervous energy. But as you perform, the nervous energy dissipates and you start to relax and you start to do what you do best.
