People always told me that my natural ability and good eyesight were the reasons for my success as a hitter. They never talk about the practice, practice, practice.

No one has come up with a substitute for hard work.

The hardest thing to do in baseball is to hit a round baseball with a round bat, squarely.

There goes the greatest hitter who ever lived

There's only one way to become a hitter. Go up to the plate and get mad. Get mad at yourself and mad at the pitcher.

The Cleveland Cavaliers just offered me a full-time job and a house! A house! A house!

Just keep going. Everybody gets better if they keep at it.
