I was acting when I was playing baseball.

I knew when my career was over. In 1965 my baseball card came out with no picture.

People don't know this, but I helped the Cardinals win the pennant. I came down with hepatitis. The trainer injected me with it!

I signed a very modest $3,000 bonus with the Braves in Milwaukee. And my old man didn't have that kinda money to put out.

They broke it to me gently. The manager came up to me before a game and told me they didn't allow visitors in the clubhouse.

Between me and my roommate, we've hit 400 Major League home runs.

The highlight of my baseball career came in Philadelphia's Connie Mack Stadium when I saw a fan fall out of the upper deck. When he got up and walked away, the crowd booed.

I led the league in go get 'em next time.

In 1962 I was named Minor League Player of the Year. It was my second season in the bigs.

When I came up to bat with three men on and two outs in the ninth, I looked in the other team's dugout and they were already in street clothes.

When I played baseball I got death threats all the time--from my mother.

What's missing is not money, but a national sense of urgency.

Eliminate blame, guilt, and worry from your diet and watch your health improve.

Godliness is the foundation of blessing.

Everyone else is just mad cause i came from the bottom with out them

People project a grey energy that is very destructive to weaken you, to drain you - just as the snake uses position to capture its victim.

Music is an emotional experience, and that is what imprints itself on the soul.

I got really into writing plays. I did that for years and years and got some produced and didn't like it as much when I wasn't able to control it.

We often pray to be better, when in truth we only want to feel better.

You will get the most attention from those who hate you. No friend, no admirer and no partner will flatter you with as much curiosity.

What is yours is mine, and all mine is yours.
