Once you realize how good you really are, you never settle for playing less than your best.

I am the best in baseball.

Babe Ruth was great. I'm just lucky.

People think I hate Billy Martin. I don't. I hate some of the things he did. And I will say I don't understand him. Billy Martin is not an intellectual, but there is a cunningness to him that is something to behold.

A baseball swing is a very finely tuned instrument. It is repetition, and more repetition, then a little more after that.

The will to win is worthless if you don't get paid for it.

Home run hitters strike out a lot.
