I guess you need days off, but I just didn't want them.

I play to lift a city, and raise a banner.

When I was playing, my wife and kids would go on the road with me, and we would go to different lunch spots that we saw on "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives."

Just because you're big doesn't mean you can't be an athlete. And just because you work out doesn't mean you're going to have a 12-pack.

You don't need to have a perfect ending to be happy.

Obviously, I think this [162 games a year four times] caused my early retirement, but I couldn't do it any other way. Just for the record, I never asked for any of the days off in my career.

Coming up through high school, coaches would tell me not to swing so hard. It's the only way I know. It just happens.

If there's a man on second, I'm trying to get him in with a base hit. The doubles and homers will come. Sooner or later they'll go out naturally. I'm just trying not to do too much.

Miguel and Justin, the two biggest guys on the team, welcomed me right away and once the cool kids in school like you, it's easy to get along.

A lot of people probably say I'm stupid, and they're probably right, because there are people who take days off who are still in the league, and I'm not.

I have nothing left to prove. I've already done enough to my neck.

Hold your head high heavy heart.

I want to drink from you're life force.

That's when it hit me. I had to go through a lot of bad relationships first, but I'd finally found him. My very own Prince Charming. Turns out they do exist.Touché, Cinderella. Touché.

Neither the Christian attitude of love for all mankind nor humane hopes for an organized society must cause us to forget that the 'human stratum' may not be homogeneous.

I am not a painter, nor an artist. Therefore I can see straight, and that may be my undoing.

Everything I think of now is too rude to actually say.

Repetition is the only form of permanence that Nature can achieve.

No one ever lost out by excessive devotion to Christ.

Acknowledge people, not their jobs.

All great spirituality is about what we do with our pain. If we do not transform our pain, we will transmit it to those around us.
