You're not going to win by automatically going out there. It's hard to know what people really expect of you, and I've never tried to live up to expectations anyway. That's no way to play baseball.

The reason I think I'm a good pitcher is I locate my fastball and I change speeds. Period. That's what you do to pitch. That's what pitchers have to do to win games

The best pitchers have a short term memory and a bullet proof confidence.

I could probably throw harder if I wanted, but why? When they're in a jam, a lot of pitchers...try to throw harder. Me, I try to locate better.

The key to pitching is to have the ability to throw a strike when they're taking and throw a ball when the hitter is swinging.

People judge too much by results. I'm just the opposite. I care about more than results. I'd rather make a good pitch and give up a bloop single than make a bad pitch and get an out.

I don't care if we're out of it or not, if I've got a chance to pitch, I want to.

Looking at him now-even if she hadn't been in love with him, that part of her that was her mother's daugher, that loved every beautiful thing for its beauty alone, would still have wanted him.

Truth is only what we like to hear....

It's not what we profess but what we practice that gives us integrity.

Why is it that it's okay to call a white person "mate" yet it's not okay to call a black guy "primate"?

The end-purpose of all art is enjoyment!

Article 50 governs the exit from the European Union and here there can also be no renegotiation.

My husband and I had five biological children but we also have been raising 23 foster children.

Your future is found in your daily routine. Successful people do daily what others do occasionally!

I don't sing in the shower at all, and I don't sing in the shower, either.

All I can say is that I'm going to try to coach the way I've coached in the past. And if it ends up not being good enough, then so be it.
