The fans here, they've been unbelievable. You've got to play hard for them.

You've got to play for whoever you play for.

I've been playing baseball since I was four. I've got baseball in my blood. I love baseball.

I don't have pressure on me. I just put pressure on myself to play hard every day.

I've got to keep working hard and doing what I'm doing.

I'm just going to try to hit the ball hard. If it's going out of the park, that'll be OK.

I don't want last season to be as good as I get.

I played because I loved it. It was incredible when they told me they were going to sign me and they were going to give me money.

I always knew I could play, but it wasn't likely to happen in Boston. I'm grateful to the Red Sox for trading me and to the Marlins for giving me the chance.

Everybody can have one great year. I've got to prove I can do it again.

I couldn't sleep knowing I was going to leave my Miami. It's always going to be my home, but it's not the same.

But sometimes the lies we let ourselves believe are for our own good.

The Golden Girls certainly proved that there was a large audience for a show about older women.

The trouble with our ideals is that if we live up to all of them, we become impossible to live with.

Cheating gets easier every time it's done. It's only hard the first time, when one feels the sting of morality and the guilt of betraying someone's trust.

Fear and creativity don't mix well.

I detest literature. I abominate the theatre. I have a horror of culture. I am only interested in magic!

I was loosely aware that most of my characters were fundamentally selfish people, but I didn't intentionally make that a theme.

The odious and disgusting aristocracy of wealth is built upon the ruins of all that is good in chivalry or republicanism; and luxury is the forerunner of a barbarism scarcely capable of cure.
