Nobody ever won a pennant without a star shortstop.

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 is a terrible weight in all kinds of beauty

We have to develop the whole system of early stage investors and a tax system around it. For every Google that has come on the scene, there are hundred entrepreneurs who never did.

Communication is paramount, and what medium or what format you utilize should be a non-issue. In some respects, that has created a barrier for new media, especially web new media, because often times maybe the media itself comes before the concept, before the ideas, and ends up navigating or dictating the outcome.

It's true that romance novels do detail the courtship phase of a relationship. We usually write 'And they lived happily ever after' before our heroine starts snoring or our hero starts tossing his socks over the hamper.

We forget how bawdy and brutal the Middle Ages were.

We will continue to work together in our common fight against terror.

I dont have an attitude problem. You have a problem with my attitude and thats not my problem.

There's a fraudulent root element of comedy in that we say things night after night as though they are rolling effortlessly from the brain and off the tongue, when in fact they are crafted over weeks and months and years.

Mostly we're motivated to control ourselves in public. Mostly. At home the motivation is much less clear. At home there's a bit of a lab for bad behavior. You can test things out without terrible consequences. Or maybe the consequences are there, but they are deferred, buried, much harder to detect.

And I got to know Red Foley well. And I got to know Lefty really well, he was a great guy.

The supreme accomplishment is to blur the line between work and play.

I rap on 'Front Porch Junkies' and 'Whatcha Got in that Cup.' I try to channel my inner Lil Wayne and Drake. It's fun to be able to freestyle over a country melody and say country words over a rap song.

When the actions becomes frequent than the words success becomes heavier than the dreams. Do more say less.

Enchantment is the purest form of sales. Enchantment is all about changing peoples hearts minds and actions because you provide them a vision or a way to do things better. The difference between enchantment and simple sales is that with enchantment you have the other persons best interests at heart too.

Is there anything better than making a kid laugh?

When you drive a car, either you manage it and feel it with the grip of the car, or, like me, you fix it on visual speed. If you do it through the grip, you lose it very quickly - because when the track changes, you can have scares. I do it visually, so if I am going too fast I fight to get the car back, but I do not do it by feeling the grip.

Monumental achievements by humanity should be done by major organizations as much together as possible.

Learning your lesson from a mistake is healthy, but living forever in the emotions of your past mistakes is toxic and debilitating.

Rick Owens is my desert island designer. I could live in his clothes alone, and I collect Ossie Clark.

The man who occupies the first place seldom plays the principal part.

We're not handed situations based on our established likes and dislikes; we get what's available.

I'm just delighted that this woman I love can be a mum again.

To think great thoughts you must be heroes as well as idealists.

You want to work with good people. When you're working with good people, it frees you up. There's nothing worse, as an actor, to show up and then feel like you have to protect yourself somehow because you don't feel like you're in good hands.
