I wish I'd known early what I had to learn late.

I'm flattered that so many baseball people think I'm a Hall of Famer. But what's hard to believe is how one-hundred and fifty plus people have changed their minds about me since I became eligible, because I haven't had a base hit since then.

I wish I'd known early what I had to learn late.

To cure a batting slump, I took my bat to bed with me. I wanted to know my bat a little better.

In my time and neighborhood (and in my soul) there was only one standard by which a woman measured success: did some man want her?

I never underestimate my opponent, but I never underestimate my talents.

I'm not as concerned about me. What's happened to me has been great. I got five great kids. Seventeen grandchildren.

I will never quit. My nation expects me to be physically harder and mentally stronger than my enemies. If knocked down i will get back up, every time. I will draw on every remaining ounce of strength to protect my enemies and to accomplish our mission. I am never out of the fight.

I happen to think that American politics is one of the noblest arts of mankind; and I cannot do anything else but write about it.

It's wonderful to be back. Back among the mountains that remind us of our vulnerability, our ultimate lack of control over the world we live in. Mountains that demand humility, and yield so much peace in return.

Our silence is deafening and deadly.

There are 100,000 actors in the Screen Actors Guild. Only 2,000 of them make more than $75,000 a year.

At times, it seems as if the only women effortlessly balancing their jobs, kids, husbands and homes are the ones on TV.

I never think of access or good will. I just want a good interview. I want guests to be informative and entertaining. I've never been concerned about someone's liking me tomorrow.

I know that war and mayhem run in our blood. I refuse to believe that they must dominate our lives. We humans are animals, too, but animals with amazing powers of rationality, morality, society. We can use our strength and courage not to savage each other, but to defend our highest purposes.

The best thing about being single? No drama, no fighting, no crying, no heartbreak, no confusion, no worries, and no problem.

I always thought that if I got no love at all early in my standup career, or I was god awful, I thought I'd get into psychology.

Cycling can be lonely but in a good way. It gives you a moment to breathe and think and get away from what youre working on.

Become who you are.

Who decides what's in Windows? The customers who buy it.

I tend to gravitate toward conflicted characters, and a character who is exploring chaos theory and population control and the difficulties of love and family is pretty rich.

I don't really love to perform in music. Some people like it more, but it's not my thing so much, but just the writing, when you get the lyric, and the lyric just goes just the right way, or you find the right bridge that takes you to the solo, and those moments are tremendous, and it's difficult to portray.

You do not have to be an economist to know that putting up the cost of employing someone is a pretty barking thing to do when you're trying to get out of a recession.

The track in Abu Dhabi is special; this will be our third Grand Prix there.

There is nothing with which every man is so afraid as getting to know how enormously much he is capable of doing and becoming.

I love working with Gary Sinise.
