I have discovered in 20 years of moving around a ballpark, that the knowledge of the game is usually in inverse proportion to the price of the seats.

The true harbinger of spring is not crocuses or swallows returning to Capistrano, but the sound of the bat on the ball.

There are only two seasons - winter and Baseball.

Baseball is almost the only orderly thing in a very unorderly world. If you get three strikes, even the best lawyer in the world can't get you off.

I try not to break the rules, but merely to test their elasticity.

If there is any justice in this world, to be a White Sox fan frees a man from any other form of penance.

Tradition is the albatross around the neck of progress.

The most beautiful thing in the world is a ballpark filled with people.

I was in the game for love. After all, where else can an old-timer with one leg, who can't hear or see, live like a king while doing the only thing I wanted to do?

I'm for the dreamers. The only really important things in history have been started by the dreamers. They never know what can't be done.

How can you be a sage if you're pretty? You can't get your wizard papers without wrinkles.

All monsters must die except the beautiful ones

That's not the part of the story that I'm interested in, anyway. The part that I'm interested in is all the personal stuff. I tried to base the powers on family archetypes.

The greatest gifts you can give your team: clarity, communication, and pulling people together around a shared mission.

I realized that If I had to choose, I would rather have birds than airplanes.

I think I probably hoped for it a little bit, but I'm not an optimist. I'm a realist... or maybe even a pessimist.

All human life is precious.

Acting time is like flight time: You can work on a simulator, you can rehearse, but unless you're really in front of the camera or on a stage - that's when you really learn how to work it.

Many new churches, I regret to say, can be described from the design point of view only as holy terrors.

It's incredibly important to note that when you don't allow failure, you get more failure.

I think - you know, I'm a guy that - I don't live on the earth just to walk it. I live on here to make a difference.
