You can be stupid once, but idiotic to do it again. I'll settle for being stupid.

In the end, as a manager or coach, you have to keep your heart pure and do your best as a manager or a coach.

Pressure comes when someone calls on you to perform a task for which you are unprepared.

It's like most anything. If you want to be a loser, there's always a way to dwell on the negative. If you want to win, there's always a way to think positively.

I'm careful not to give into theatrics when times are tough, I don't like it when somebody gives into outside pressure and puts on a show for others.

There are always distractions, if you allow them.

Just because you're down to your last strike, you're not out yet. You can always do more. You'll always have more at-bats to take. That's true in baseball, in rescuing animals, and in life generally.
