Nobody likes the ball low and away, but that's where you're going to get it from me. I been pitching it there 50 years, away from them. That way they can't hurt you. You keep the ball in the park.

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

Not to be cheered by praise, not to be grieved by blame, but to know thoroughly one's own virtues or powers are the characteristics of an excellent man.

I never threw an illegal pitch. The trouble is, once in a while I toss one that ain't never been seen by this generation.

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

Keep the juices flowing by jangling around gently as you move.

I've said it once and I'll say it a a hundred times, I'm forty-four years old.
