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

I don't know why the players make such a big fuss about sitting in the first class section of the plane. Does that mean they'll get there faster?

The great thing about baseball is when you're done, you'll only tell your grandchildren the good things. If they ask me about 1989, I'll tell them I had amnesia.

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

If you have to choose between power and speed and it often turns out you have to make that choice, you've got to go for speed.

The trick is to realize that after giving your best, there's nothing more to give.

You can be whoever you want to be, you just have to want it bad enough.
