Managing is not running, hitting, or stealing. Managing is getting your players to put out one hundred percent year after year.

I only had a high school education and believe me, I had to cheat to get that.

Me carrying a briefcase is like a hotdog wearing earrings.

Just give me 25 guys on the last year of their contracts; I'll win a pennant every year.

I understand people who boo us. It's like going to Broadway show, you pay for your tickets and expect to be entertained. When you're not, you have a right to complain.

A player does not have to like a manager and he does not have to respect a manager. All he has to do is obey the rules.

He's (Willie Stargell) such a big strong guy he should love that porch. He's got power enough to hit home runs in any park, including Yellowstone.
