The game has never seen a better catcher than YADIER MOLINA.

I'm a great believer in the character of the club. To me, character has a lot to do with how you compete. That creates urgency and toughness. That elevates the talent that you have.

Even when you have three strikes, you're still not out. There is always something else you can do.

Pressure comes when someone calls on you to perform a task for which you are unprepared.

Play the game right. If you play the game intelligently and execute the fundamentals, you can win.

It's like most anything. If you want to be a loser, there's always a way to dwell on the negative. If you want to win, there's always a way to think positively.

Just because you're down to your last strike, you're not out yet. You can always do more. You'll always have more at-bats to take. That's true in baseball, in rescuing animals, and in life generally.

Toughest thing for me as a young manager is that a lot of my players saw me play. They know how bad I was.

We never quit trying. I know that's kind of corny, but the fact is we never quit trying. The dugout was alive even when we were behind. And sometimes it works.

Anything that disturbs your comfort factor is good for you.

I can’t help you, I can only guide you, and you are the one who can help yourself.

I'm not even sure we remembered to kiss. What we had went deeper than a kiss

Self-criticism and negative thoughts about yourself will attract people who reflect this back to you, showing critical behavior and can abuse you physically.

A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking.

My process for the parodies is that I get an idea for a song and then get approval from the artist and then go in and record it and probably try to get it out as soon as possible.

What I read is so distorted that I cannot believe that the person they are talking about is myself.

You know there are moments such as these when time stands still and all you do is hold your breath and hope it will wait for you.

Cruelty towards others is always also cruelty towards ourselves.

The Six W's: Work will win when wishing won't.

Whenever you show up on a set where you haven't been from the beginning - at least myself - I'm kind of quiet. I just watch the politics and how everything unfolds.
