Me and George and Billy are two of a kind.

What was the name of that dog on 'Rin Tin Tin'?

He's so ugly. When you walked by him, your pants wrinkle. He made fly balls curve foul.

These guys are so old they're eligible for meals on wheels.

I felt alone out there, like I was on a desert island. I felt like Gilligan.

A-Rod don't want to be the straw that stirs the drink. He want to be known as a fair guy who goes out and help a team to win a pennant. He's a great guy.

Everybody complaining about their average and all that, but I wanted be in there where I can help my team no matter what situation. And a lot of days, I didn't have it.

Going on twenty years, I've seen A-Rod getting better in different programs. He's one of the hardest-working guys there.

Good arms are overrated.

We yelled, mostly, but bad enough that you wanted to fight. That's how we became winners. We fought each other. When you did something wrong, we'd tell you about it.

What I liked was to set the tone - set the pace for the team. I know when we're starting the game, I can get on and steal a base, then a guy bring me in. Then we're in the lead and in a good position to win. That was the most exciting thing - to help the team.

You don't think about the cold weather. I'm just going to go out and play ball, do the best I can, and hope the team wins.

As a comedian, you have everything working against you.

Dai Vernon, the greatest sleight of hand figure in the history of the art, rarely performed. But he invented magic and had an enormous influence on the whole range of sleight of hand. And so often, the magic he was doing was to fool other magicians.

It's a moment that I'm after, a fleeting moment, but not a frozen moment.

I like to use 'I Can't Believe it's Not Butter' on my toast in the morning, because sometimes when I eat breakfast, I like to be incredulous. How was breakfast? Unbelievable.

My two best friends have gone through break-ups that were really hard, and I remember thinking, 'How could this be so hard and important to them?' Literally for months they were really upset and they couldn't get over it. I had no idea what it was like. And now that I've been through it, I totally understand.

God endorses the confusion and even outrage that we feel when mysterious things happen.

Warm weather fosters growth cold weather destroys it. Thus a man with an unsympathetic temperament has a scant joy but a man with a warm and friendly heart overflowing blessings and his beneficence will extend to posterity.

One of the things I had to learn as a writer was to trust the act of writing. To put myself in the position of writing to find out what I was writing.

I go into any movie that's historical fiction thinking, 'OK, I'm here to watch a work of art, something delivering a series of opinions, and if it's a good work of art, these opinions become so deeply embedded in complexity and richness that I won't even be bothered by the opinions.

Autumn casts a spell and dying never was so beautiful.

I deal with a lot of wonderful gay people. I hire a lot of them. I use a lot of them. I respect them. They're terrific. I am good friends with them. But you live your life the way you want to live, and I'll live mine, and I won't stick my nose in yours.
