Throwing a knuckleball for a strike is like throwing a butterfly with hiccups across the street into your neighbor's mailbox.

Human beings are pampered by the Lord. Their real tests don't come until later in life.

Never had I had so many friends and so much fun as I did in the projects.

I never did allow anything to keep me from my kids. They're the most important part of my life.

My first job after my retirement from baseball was as a narrator for the Eastman Philharmonica.

I was bred as an outcast, part Negro and part Seminole, in my early years raised as an Indian.

I love September, especially when we're in it.
