I think it's incredible because there were guys like (Willie) Mays and (Mickey) Mantle and Henry Aaron who were great players for ten years... I only had four or five good years.

I became a good pitcher when I stopped trying to make them miss the ball and started trying to make them hit it.

People who write about spring training not being necessary have never tried to throw a baseball.

Pitching is the art of instilling fear.

A guy that throws what he intends to throw, that's the definition of a good pitcher.

He's the strangest hitter in baseball. Figure him out one way and he'll kill you another.

Show me a guy who can't pitch inside and I'll show you a loser.

The game has a cleanness. If you do a good job, the numbers say so. You don't have to ask anyone or play politics. You don't have to wait for the reviews.

I can't picture people talking about me 50 years from now.

If I could straighten it out (his golf swing), I'd be pitching at Dodger Stadium tonight.

I've got a lot of years to live after baseball and I would like to live them with the complete use of my body.

Ocean is more ancient than the mountains, and freighted with the memories and the dreams of Time.

Spoon boy: Do not try and bend the spoon - that's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth.Neo: What truth?Spoon boy: There is no spoon.

Memories are never as true as the things one forgets.

The one thing worth living for is to keep one's soul pure.

A friend of mine always says, ‘Women love me for the man I’m not.’

Hate cannot live alone. It must have love as a trigger, a goad, or a stimulant.

We live and die; Christ died and lived!

Anger is the noise of the soul; the unseen irritant of the heart; the relentless invader of silence.

Money is a way of creating scarcity.

Spirit and body, when joined together, become a living soul of supernal worth.
