I have more confidence than I ever have before.

My mom and dad gave me everything they could have given me.

I like to be aggressive. I like to swing the bat.

I can't change something that I've been all my life. But I can work to express myself and talk more.

My goal is to win. It doesn't matter how I do. I want to do well, but I just want the team to win.

I learned that I have to work hard every day, that I can't get down if I get in a slump.

I pray to God to be a great player, but I want to keep my life.

I like people talking about me, about my defense or what I'm doing. I like to see that, and that makes me work hard.

Major League Baseball should retire Roberto Clemente's number, just like they did Jackie Robinson's.

I just need to come to the park every day thinking something good is going to happen to me and hoping today is going to be the day.

Now that I feel 100 percent, I'm looking forward to playing my game the way I want to-getting on base, stealing bases and trying to help the team any way I can.

I had to break to pieces, so I could reassemble even stronger.

My thoughts are like butterflies. They are beautiful, but they fly away.

I will follow anyone...And remind everyone...Of enslaved Yazidi women...Raped...And forced...To donate blood to ISIS men...

I gave all I had. Now I want to enjoy my family.

The tendency to turn human judgments into divine commands makes religion one of the most dangerous forces in the world.

I'm not terribly fond of soapboxes.

I love chocolate. I love chocolate ice cream. I love chocolate candy. The darker the better.

My mom is American, so I was raised in her household in my formative years.

The result justifies the deed.

Step back from your Facebook Wall for a moment: Doesn't it, suddenly, look a little ridiculous? Your life in this format?
