What's scary in life is not what people know (or don't know), but what they know that ain't so.

Baseball is the most perfect of games, solid, true, pure and precious as diamonds. If only life were so simple. Within the baselines anything can happen. Tides can reverse; oceans can open. That's why they say, we don't stop playing because we get old. We get old because we stop playing.

With women you don't have to talk your head off. You just say a word and let them fill in from there.

The only change is that baseball has turned Paige from a second class citizen to a second class immortal.

When they treat you bad, you just got to take care of your pride, no matter what.

The Crawfords played everywhere, in every ballpark. And we won, won like we invented the game.

If your stomach disputes you, lie down and pacify it with cool thoughts.
