I think the thing I'm most excited about is the fact that I was able to, for the most part, change pitchers' mindsets about what kind of hitter I am.

If on-base percentage is so important, then why don't they put it up on the scoreboard?

It's an honor playing for Bobby Cox.

I'm a different hitter than Chipper Jones. He goes up looking for certain pitches to hit. I go up there looking for something over the plate and try to hit it hard.

When we [the Braves] won the World Series in '95, I went nuts. I mean, that was my team.

A lot of people just thought I'd be a .260 hitter all my life. I was kind of like, 'Let me make some adjustments and let me learn the game a little bit.'

I think if everyone is clean, then who cares about how you're tested?

One day, you're 11 games, 12 games out, and the next day you're in first!

The light within us can always identify our mind’s darkness

If we believe in nothing, if nothing has any meaning and if we can affirm no values whatsoever, then everything is possible and nothing has any importance.

How can anyone love someone who is less than a full person, unless love itself is domination per se?

Even though I love solar and love wind, like most people do, I like the renewable sources, they alone are not going to get America energy independent.

I hate to say this, but at the time, (late 70's) it was like the smart people liked punk and the dumb people liked Journey.

Independence cannot be real if a nation depends upon gifts.

I wholeheartedly encourage any steps in the right direction, in whatever time frame works for the person on the path.

Mathematically speaking, it seems impossible that there isn't life out our planet. If you flick on the news, it certainly seems like we have aliens among us.

There are lots of good reasons to abandon a project. Having a little competition is not one of them.

That which is good for all and any one, For whomsoever- that is good for me. . . What I hold good for self, I should for all. Only Law Universal is true law.
