Scoring a lot of points is not a goal of mine. I just do whatever I do best to help my team win. I'm a role player.

We're not even thinking about (the postseason) right now. We've been in a slump, so we're taking things day by day. We aren't looking to the future because we haven't addressed the present.

In a way, if we want to make the postseason, we feel like we have to win out. We have got some good games coming up, but we are going to have to buckle down and get the job done somehow.

I don't know nothing about that. I'm not the man upstairs.

I have never been able to resist a book about books.

The miracle is not to walk on water. The miracle is to walk on the green earth, dwelling deeply in the present moment and feeling truly alive.

I watched Titanic when I got back home from the hospital, and cried. I knew that my IQ had been damaged.

After this time I surpassed all others in authority, but I had no more power than the others who were also my colleagues in office.

There's no point in getting frustrated at yourself. Just be truthful.

I was a hangover of that era where they’d say “Take off that medal! Is that a St. Christopher medal? You’re going to lose your audience with that.”

Waiting is worse than knowing. Grief rends the heart cleanly, that it may begin to heal; waiting shreds the spirit.

It gave me no chance. He (Nolan Ryan) just blew it (strikeout #5,000) by me. But its an honor. I'll have another paragraph in all the baseball books. I'm already in the books three or four times.

To be vain of one's rank or place is to show that one is below it.

Eternal life means more than mere future blessing to be enjoyed by believers; it is equally a kind of spiritual ability.
