Souderton was a good town to grow up in. Everybody knew each other.

Physical therapy is part of my offseason routine. That has helped me greatly.

Your body is not made to throw like we throw. That's why you see softball pitchers pitching two or three games a day. It's a natural movement in softball. In baseball it's not a natural movement.

I came to realize in my late 20s that my velocity is not going to grow so I had to learn to utilize what I had.

I was raised in a very blue-collar family.

If you're a doctor or a lawyer or teacher, if you only get three things right out of 10, you're considered a failure.

I've always approached spring training as I have something to prove.

I've kind of looked at my whole career as a spring training invite.

Rest is obviously a key in the offseason.

Learning how to work and learning how to fail is important.

I think it's all a coincidence. I've pitched some poor games here and got a no-decision. But just give me the ball. I don't care where I pitch.

Who are you? That is what you need to remember.

There is no favouritism with God. He accept people from all nations who fear him.

Look at yourself and look into the eyes you've been looking at your entire life. Recognize your SPIRIT. You are the reflection of life.

Let there be sunshine, let there be rain, let the broken hearted love again.

I don't want my daughter to think she has to deprive herself to be pretty...It's all about balance and I can teach that best by living it.

The best poets, after all, exhibit only a tame and civil side of nature. They have not seen the west side of any mountain.

I think the people who have really followed my career from the time I was seven years old can see my steady progress and see the type of person and athlete I am.

Biggest obstacle to learning is thinking you already know.

I am but mad north-north-west. When the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a handsaw.

I love seeing young people take a stance and not be afraid to say how they feel, and protest when they feel things are wrong or unjust.
