Give me some scratching, diving, hungry ballplayers who come to kill you.

Baseball is like church. Many attend few understand.

How you play the game is for college ball. When you're playing for money, winning is the only thing that matters.

Winning is a habit.

I come to win.

Give me some scratching, diving, hungry ballplayers who come to kill you.

Buy a steak for a player on another club after the game, but don't even speak to him on the field. Get out there and beat them to death.

Nobody ever won a pennant without a star shortstop.

Show me a good loser and I'll show you an idiot.

Win any way you can as long as you can get away with it.

You can't get any pictures from way back there.

In the olden days, the umpire didn't have to take any courses in mind reading. The pitcher told you he was going to throw at you.

I never questioned the integrity of an umpire. Their eyesight, yes.

I believe in rules. Sure I do. If there weren't any rules, how could you break them?

Some guys are admired for coming to play, as the saying goes. I prefer those who come to kill.

Nice guys finish last.

What are we out at the park for, except to win?

I made a game effort to argue but two things were against me: the umpires and the rules.

You don't save a pitcher for tomorrow. Tomorrow it may rain.

I never did say that you can't be a nice guy and win. I said that if I was playing third base and my mother rounded third with the winning run, I'd trip her up.

You argue with the umpire because there is nothing else you can do about it.

There are only five things you can do in baseball - run, throw, catch, hit and hit with power.

If you don't win, you're going to be fired. If you do win, you've only put off the day you're going to be fired.

God watches over drunks and third baseman.

As long as I've got a chance to beat you I'm going to take it.

There's no such thing as simple. Simple is hard.

The Scriptures are the truth from God.

I love luxury. And luxury lies not in richness and ornateness but in the absence of vulgarity. Vulgarity is the ugliest word in our language. I stay in the game to fight it.

Classical cooking and molecular gastronomy should remain separate. You can mix two styles and get fusion; any more, and you just get confusion.

If you want to make some memories, add some tequila.

Everyone wants to be sexy.

It is right noble to fight with wickedness and wrong; the mistake is in supposing that spiritual evil can be overcome by physical means.

The humans place in the universe will be set in the scheme of evolution the product of our biological inheritance.

I don't want to govern the Palestinians. I don't want them as subjects of Israel or as citizens of Israel. I want them to have their own independent state but a demilitarized state.

We all know far too many stories where the third generation just destroys everything that the first two have built up, and I certainly hope my family are different because I've worked too hard and my father has worked too hard for it to be given away.

Programmers and marketing people know how to get into your subconscious - they spend millions of dollars researching colors, shapes, designs, symbols, that affect your preferences, and they can make you feel warm, trusting, like buying. They can manipulate you.

The more decadent a culture gets, the more they have a need for what they don't have at all, which is innocence, so you end up with kiddie porn and a perverse obsession with youth.

'True Detective' did change my career.

My big break was when I won 'Search for a Supermodel Australia,' and then I came second in the world series, and that was all good, but I was just having fun; it wasn't real to me.

Success in golf depends less on strength of body than upon strength of mind and character.

I decided to not be so dismissive of my music in favor of my acting. Acting has been such a consistent thing for me; a lot of times in the past, I wouldn't have had the confidence with my music to really make it a part of my schedule. I would easily push it to the side, or I would easily take up time that was needed for it.

My first paying job, when I was 15, I was a day camp counselor.

If you want to be the best salesperson, first you must be the best person.

Never worry about bad press: All that matters is if they spell your name right.

People have perhaps gotten to the point where for the most part movies are a just bit of escape.

Perhaps when we find ourselves wanting everything it is because we are dangerously close to wanting nothing.

When all of your wishes are granted, many of your dreams will be destroyed.

If your mind isn't clouded by unnecessary things, this is the best season of your life.

A safe army is better than a safe border
