“The things you do for a woman you wouldn’t do for anything else. Same with money.”

How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?

If a man can beat you, walk him.

Work like you don’t need the money. Love like you’ve never been hurt. Dance like nobody’s watching.

Avoid running at all times.

The only change is that baseball has turned Paige from a second class citizen to a second class immortal.

Ain’t no man can avoid being born average, but there ain’t no man got to be common.

I ain’t ever had a job, I just always played baseball.

I don’t generally like running. I believe in training by rising gently up and down from the bench.

Age is a case of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it don’t matter.

Just take the ball and throw it where you want to. Throw strikes. Home plate don’t move.

Don’t pray when it rains if you don’t pray when the sun shines.

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it a a hundred times, I’m forty-four years old.

When a batter swings and I see his knees move, I can tell just what his weaknesses are then I just put the ball where I know he can’t hit it.

I never threw an illegal pitch. The trouble is, once in a while I toss one that ain’t never been seen by this generation.

Don’t look back. Something might be gaining on you.

I never rush myself. See, they can’t start the game without me.

People will tell you anything but what they do is always the truth.

Is it possible that software is not like anything else.

To do anything to a high level, it has to be total obsession.

I like to think of my behavior in the sixties as a ‘learning experience.’ Then again, I like to think of anything stupid I’ve done as a ‘learning experience.’ It makes me feel less stupid.

I did stand-up, weird and ignorant stuff about my career – anything for a laugh.

Don’t bother discussing sex with small children. They rarely have anything to add.

There is a great difference between discoveries and inventions. With discoveries, one can always be skeptical, and many surprises can take place. In the case of inventions, surprises can really only occur for people who have not had anything to do with it.

After getting out of the service and going into baseball I never wanted to do anything else.
