Through the years I've been getting better and better and better, and it's what you learn though the seasons.

I swing hard all the time. That's what I've done my whole life - hit.

You just have to go as far as you can go. Everyone works his way up.

I just love the feeling from the fans and when I'm walking on deck I can hear people screaming and wishing you the best. That puts you into the game more than anything.

All I like to do is work every day and have an idea what I want to do.

I showed people that it's not about guessing what people can do. It's about saying, 'Here, show me what you can do.'

Everybody has something to prove each year. Everybody has a responsibility in this game. Even the batboy.

Through the years I've been getting better and better and better, and it's what you learn though the seasons.

I come to play everyday.

A lot of people write books not at the end of their career. Why you gotta wait until then? When you're momentum's going, that's when people really want to get to know about you.

I just come do what I've got to do, play my game. And I don't worry if anybody likes it.

I just want to play baseball.

I stress a lot, sometimes.

I try to be as quiet as I can at the plate, but still aggressive.

I try to do things the right way.

I'm a winner, I play to win, I want to make good things go on around me.

I'm the kind of guy that I never forget my teammates.

I'm the same guy I've always been. I'm the same guy now as when I was hitting 50 home runs. I don't change.

My mom, she wasn't like a baseball mother who knew everything about the game. She just wanted me to be happy with what I was doing.

My mom, she's still always there for me. Always.

My teammates are the best.

My whole career, my swing has always been the most important thing to me. Even when I'm taking a shower, I work on my swing.

Negativity doesn't help me.

Sometimes when you're fighting, fighting, fighting, the mind needs some time off and you regroup and get back to normal.

Sometimes you just don't feel the same everyday, it doesn't matter what you do, but when you have people looking forward to seeing you perform for them, that puts you in the mood, and that's natural in Boston. That's why it's such a special place to play.

The fans know that I don't give at-bats away.

Trust me, I play the game for the fans, my family and myself.

What I don't want to do is just play for the sake of playing.

You don't get better as you get older in your career. It's not natural to have your best years late in your career. So I'm trying to do whatever I can to keep my body feeling good for as long as I can.

I still believe Emmitt has enough left in the tank to be a productive back over the next couple of seasons.

The seasons come up undisturbed by crime and war.

I sat down with my trainers to check my past seasons and to see what could be done to keep me motivated and in good shape. I had to find a new motivation, a new momentum.

Expect to have hope rekindled. Expect your prayers to be answered in wondrous ways. The dry seasons in life do not last. The spring rains will come again.

Excess generally causes reaction, and produces a change in the opposite direction, whether it be in the seasons, or in individuals, or in governments.

I don't expect to see them in the top six but I think of all the teams that have come up in previous seasons, I think Manchester City are the biggest club.

I'm a dog person, I've had dogs all my life. But you see, it's not really a dog. It's more like a little robot. It's an actor. It displays no emotion whatsoever. I swear that dog doesn't know any of us even though we've done five seasons of Frasier.

You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of.

I came from Mechanicsville, Virginia, where you have four seasons.

I think she definitely has. I think, um, her and Mulder's relationship has become more equal. And, I think she has become stronger and more independent over the seasons.

I don't have dry seasons, because I don't allow them.

Famous people come up to me, but I don't know who they are because my sight is so bad. It's always at the pool of the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills when I don't have my lenses in and my glasses are in my room.

When you live by the sea, there are definite seasons when you can see the weather coming and going, which lends itself to photography.

Nevertheless during these two seasons, Chapman impressed me a lot because he had the faculty to pull himself out of the most critical situations.

Busy old fool, unruly Sun, why dost thou thus through windows and through curtains call on us? Must to thy motions lovers seasons run?

We have to get better at that. All of the Stanley Cup winning teams throughout the past few seasons, when they needed to play defense, they did it. If you can play defense, that's when you know it's game over.

I have three daughters. I wanted them to be raised where there are real seasons and where everyone their age wasn't trying to get into movies.

The army is always the same. The sun and the moon change. The army knows no seasons.

I used to say when I was working in the theater that if I ever had five seasons of a hit TV show I'd never have to worry about money and wouldn't have to do anything I didn't want to do.

I realized that in those nine seasons I started out at about 225 pounds and I felt, you know, full figured fabulous woman but in those seasons I gained 75 pounds up to over 300 pounds all in front of the nation.
