You must be passionate, you must dedicate yourself, and you must be relentless in the pursuit of your goals. If you do, you will be successful.

The difference between the old ballplayer and the new ballplayer is the jersey. The old ballplayer cared about the name on the front. The new ballplayer cares about the name on the back.

I always try to act as though there is a little boy or a little girl around, and I try never to do anything that would give them a bad example.

Baseball is the life.

I always thought of my career as a body of work and not just about numbers.

I did commit adultery, if adultery is having a relationship in a marriage with another woman. I learned from that.

I had a prostatectomy in the fall and fortunately it was encapsulated and I didn't have to go through chemotherapy.

I have been blessed to win a number of awards and be involved in numerous historical baseball moments over my 20-year career with the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres.

I really think there is a certain destiny in my life to lead people.

I think three-to-five years ahead minimum. I have a short-term plan, a five-year plan and a decade plan.

I used to look like an American flag. The Padre uniform makes me look like a taco. Actually, the transition has been great. I've made 25 new friends, and I never thought I wanted to be anything other than a Dodger, but this is fun.

I'm sure everyone knows that my heart is and always will be with the players, the fans and the entire Dodger family. I've cared about the Dodgers for nearly my entire life, and nothing can change my allegiance to this franchise.

Just from being with my grandmother, my maturity escalated. And now I'm in tune to the needs of people. It was a large responsibility, taking care of a human being.

Major League Baseball has prostate awareness for two weeks leading up to Father's Day, and I want to get involved in that.

My relationships are based on personal reciprocity. Being a Dodger was a matter of heart, but in the end I felt they didn't want me.

The day I'm able to be debt-free is the day I'm going to be the happiest guy around.

Through SCP Auctions, the Garvey family will also continue to share our great love for baseball by donating time and dollars to youth baseball programs.

To be perfectly honest, it isn't fair that people have used my personality, and the sacrifices I make because I want to, as an indication that I want to be in a political office.

We all obviously need others to look up to, and be inspirational to us. Ford did a great job as far as putting the presidency back where it belonged, getting the trust back after Nixon. And President Reagan has been one of the most influential presidents.

We are fortunate and blessed to have a partner of Harvey Schiller's stature, who shares our vision for the future of the Dodgers, the city of Los Angeles and our great baseball fans throughout the world.

With my Roman Catholic upbringing, I have a set of principles that serve me well in good times and bad.

You have to set the goals that are almost out of reach. If you set a goal that is attainable without much work or thought you are stuck with something below your true talent and potential.

Given six months to live and being the fighter that I am, I set high goals for myself.

My back to the goal, physically fighting off defenders, trying to bang my goals in, every week I have to do the business for this club. That's the life of a striker.

At the bottom, the elimination of spyware and the preservation of privacy for the consumer are critical goals if the Internet is to remain safe and reliable and credible.

A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals.

My goals are to hit .300, score 100 runs, and stay injury-prone.

Lives have been altered in fundamental ways, and later, after they acquire a more complete understanding of what goals are actually attainable, many are left facing a lot of pain and frustration. And yet, there's no culture of complaint.

A politician's goal is always to manipulate public debate. I think there are some politicians with higher goals. But all of them get corrupted by power.

You must accept that you might fail; then, if you do your best and still don't win, at least you can be satisfied that you've tried. If you don't accept failure as a possibility, you don't set high goals, you don't branch out, you don't try - you don't take the risk.

Greatness is not measured by what a man or woman accomplishes, but by the opposition he or she has overcome to reach his goals.

I knew all these people had the same goals I did, but the one that worked the hardest would come out on top. That's what drove me all the time. But I had fun. I did better every day, and that's what made it fun.

My job is to score goals.

If you are not making the progress that you would like to make and are capable of making, it is simply because your goals are not clearly defined.

I learned that people everywhere are basically the same and have similar goals that we do. They want health and happiness and the opportunity to provide for their families.

Your goals, minus your doubts, equal your reality.

I just don't want to be rapping forever. I love it, but sometimes you got goals for yourself.

I don't think I ever set my goals that high. As a kid growing up I just wanted an opportunity to race and to be able to make a living doing it. It just came together.

Indeed - judicious, consistent parenting is a dream of mine. No judgements, learning space and listening carefully are my goals.

Make your goals big and broad enough so that they never become answered prayers and boomerang to curse you.

To meet my goals, I couldn't let up when I was playing tennis.

Chicago is one city. We shall work as one people for our common good and our common goals.

People are not lazy. They simply have impotent goals - that is, goals that do not inspire them.

It is a rare piece of legislation indeed where there is so much agreement about the goals.

Nowadays, as soon as a striker scores three goals, everyone starts asking him about it.

The fact is, if our primary legislative goals are to repeal and replace the health spending bill; to end the bailouts; cut spending; and shrink the size and scope of government, the only way to do all these things it is to put someone in the White House who won't veto any of these things.
