If there was ever a man born to be a hitter it was me.

There has always been a saying in baseball that you can't make a hitter, but I think you can improve a hitter. More than you can improve a fielder. More mistakes are made hitting than in any other part of the game.

There's only one way to become a hitter. Go up to the plate and get mad. Get mad at yourself and mad at the pitcher.

Baseball's future? Bigger and bigger, better and better! No question about it, it's the greatest game there is!

Baseball gives every American boy a chance to excel, not just to be as good as someone else but to be better than someone else. This is the nature of man and the name of the game.

You have to hit the fastball to play in the big leagues.

A man has to have goals - for a day, for a lifetime - and that was mine, to have people say, 'There goes Ted Williams, the greatest hitter who ever lived.'

I hope somebody hits .400 soon. Then people can start pestering that guy with questions about the last guy to hit .400.

Hitting is fifty percent above the shoulders.

Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered a good performer.

If I was being paid thirty-thousand dollars a year, the very least I could do was hit .400.

Just keep going. Everybody gets better if they keep at it.

Never make your home in a place. Make a home for yourself inside your own head. Youll find what you need to furnish it memory friends you can trust love of learning and other such things. That way it will go with you wherever you journey.

My parents instilled something greater than myself. They instilled faith in me.

We have guided missiles and misguided men.

In the heat of the Russian summer a sleeping car is the most horrible instrument of martyrdom imaginable.

To be on my very first spacewalk, to be outside, and to have contamination in my suit to the point that I couldn't see in either eye - that, I think, would cause some people to lose control.

The kids think we're wacky. Mum and Dad are in showbiz - they don't know any other way. They've grown up travelling all over the world and are getting a worldly education. My son is 12 and he can speak eloquently on religions and cultures.

Temptation to behave is terrible.

I thought I'd be edgy and dye my hair red. And I dyed my hair, like, Jessica Rabbit red.

Down the mine I dreamed of cricket; I bowled imaginery balls in the dark; I sent the stumps spinning and heard them rattling in the tunnels. No mishap was going to stop me from bowling in the real game, especially this one.

I am one of the few men honest enough to say they do not understand women.
