I'm the best. That's why I'm so relaxed out there. You've got to have some arrogant bones in your body, especially to be a pitcher in the big leagues.

There are no days off in our division. Even a team like Tampa Bay can beat you up.

I make too much money to play a game I love to ever feel sorry for myself.

I've definitely always wanted to be the guy they tell, 'Here's the ball. Go do it.'

I just don't see me going through that rehab and coming back to pitch at this point in my life.

Pitching is pitching. I've been doing this since I was eight-years-old, playing in my backyard with my dad. The things that work in Double-A will also work in the majors.

I'm confident in myself, either way. I've pitched big games all my life.

Any strikeout record worth having is in a Texas pitcher's pocket. I might come join them one day.

The thing about throwing a fastball is, you want it to be easy, you want it to be effortless.

If the voices in your head make you cry, you're a lunatic. Put their words on paper, and you're a writer.

The presence of Knowledge Based Trust in organizations gives rise to a high level of interpersonal trust amongst their members and creates cohesive units out of a loose bunch of people.

I hate that our world makes it look like everyone is perfect but you. Each and every one of us is human. Why are all the flaw that we all have hidden like they're not real?

So, what is my story? I don't know. It's long and twisted and not quite finished yet.

Don't expect the theatre to satisfy the habits of its audience, but to change them.

I'm a pundit. I'm, like, paid to be a narcissistic blowhard and be in front of the camera.

I will tell you, running for President, the money I spent is peanuts compared to the money I won't make. And that's O.K. because this is so important. What I'm doing is so important.

But the universe is infinite.

I have a pretty eclectic taste in the movies that I like to watch, and also in the movies that I'm inspired to work on.

Pardon others often, thyself never.
