When I took the job as the manager of the Olympic team, I didn't take it because I was a Dodger. I did it because I was an American, and I wanted to bring that gold medal where it belongs in baseball, the United States. And that's exactly what our team did.

I was glad to see Italy win. All the guys on the team were Italians.

Managing is like holding a dove in your hand. Squeeze too hard and you kill it; not hard enough and it flies away.

My goal is to live to be 100.

I still remember the entire Boy Scout motto. I don't remember the serial number of my gun in the army. I don't remember the number of my locker in school. But I remember that Boy Scout code.

I am so happy and proud to learn of Hideo Nomo's election to the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame. He was quite a pitcher and competitor, but he is also a very special and caring person.

You give loyalty, you'll get it back. You give love, you’ll get it back.
