Whatever I can do to win, I'll do it, even if I have to get hit by a pitch, whatever it takes.

Whatever I can do to win, I'll do it, even if I have to get hit by a pitch, whatever it takes.

I feel I let my team down today. My heart is bleeding for everybody else. I felt like I should have gotten it done today. That's how it is. Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't.

I was nervous batting eighth, and I was nervous batting seventh.

I know about having days off. They can be helpful sometimes, especially late in the year. It's just key to go out there and establish early, especially in this park where they can put up some crooked numbers early.

Win or lose, I've been fortunate to be able to pitch deep enough into games to get decisions.

As far as the anxiety, I have no idea about it. I don't feel like I have any nervousness out there. I'm just a guy who really cares about being competitive and that's the bottom line.

I just want to say I owe the whole reds organization a great deal. Great staff top to bottom and I wish those guys all the best.

I love what I do. I'm appreciative and I'm still competitive. I still love baseball, but it doesn't consume me. If I can't do it anymore, then I go home and do something else. It's not the end of the world. It's just the end of your career.

I want to be a traveling circus in that big-league uniform, like everybody else.

I'm not a conventional guy. I've never been a conventional guy.

It's not about the money for me.

The sun shines on everybody. You've got to keep believing.

My Hellboy is modeled on my father in some ways: a guy who's been in the Korean War, and he's traveled, and he's done a lot of stuff, and he's kind of got a been there, done that attitude. He's also been in the world. Del Toro's change was to have Hellboy bottled up in a room and mooning over the girl he can't have.

I figured my body always would be able to repair itself. I think all of us believe that - until you begin to age and get hit with deteriorating joints.

'Newsmax' lets me work with other media.

Every moment of a science fiction story must represent the triumph of writing over world-building.

It's the way that you know what I thought I knew. It's the beat that my heart skips when I'm with you.

When you have Liam Neeson in a film, no matter how good everyone else is, it's a Liam Neeson film. And if there's wolves, and you're running, it's about Liam Neeson running from wolves.

I've got a bad case of the 3:00 am guilts - you know, when you lie in bed awake and replay all those things you didn't do right? Because, as we all know, nothing solves insomnia like a nice warm glass of regret, depression and self-loathing.

If anyone tells you it's impossible to be fabulous and smart and make a ton of money using math, well, they can just get in line behind you - and kiss your math.

Time may be a great healer but its also a lousy beautician.

I got this powdered water - now I don't know what to add.

Man can embody truth but he cannot know it.

I think the collision between the First and Third world is going to become more and more conspicuous. It's the big cliff that we've all got to climb.

The funny thing is, though I write mysteries, it is the one genre in adult fiction I never read. I read Nancy Drew, of course, when I was a kid, but I think the real appeal is as a writer because I'm drawn to puzzly, complicated plots.

The main reason why men and women make different aesthetic judgments is the fact that the latter, generally incapable of abstraction, only admire what meets their complete approval.

I love doing the radio plays, creating a whole world with just the voice, and I'd love to be back on stage, too, at some point.

Government cannot do it all. As we work hard to break welfare dependency and get young people ready for the labour market, we need businesses to give them a chance and not just fall back on labour from abroad.

My marriages have been one of the greatest voids in my life.

Economics works great for planning your life when you don't have a work passion, since we tend to assume that your job delivers only money and you trade off job hours with leisure hours. If you think your job will just be a job, pick one that pays well per hour and leaves you some time off, even if the activity of the job is boring.

Religion often is misused for purely power-political goals, including war.

May we soon enjoy the fruits of our labor in a peaceful and united Germany.

Who knows what would have become of me, if my parents had not had their influence on me.

I do not believe that sheer suffering teaches. If suffering alone taught, all the world would be wise, since everyone suffers. To suffering must be added mourning, understanding, patience, love, openness and the willingness to remain vulnerable.

There had to be a hysteria and a fear sent through America in order to get increased war budgets.

The glory is being happy. The glory is not winning here or winning there. The glory is enjoying practicing, enjoy every day, enjoying to work hard, trying to be a better player than before.
