“A part of control is learning to correct your weaknesses.”

I’d give a year of my life if I could hit a homerun on opening day of this great new park.

Each strikeout brings me closer to my next homerun.

Baseball is the greatest game in the world and deserves the best you can give it.

Don’t ever forget two things I’m going to tell you. One, don’t believe everything that’s written about you. Two, don’t pick up too many checks.

Baseball changes through the years. It gets milder.

Paris ain’t much of a town.

Reading isn’t good for a ballplayer. Not good for his eyes. If my eyes went bad even a little bit I couldn’t hit home runs. So I gave up reading.

It’s hard to beat somebody when they don’t give up.

If I’d just tried for them dinky singles I could’ve batted around 600.

Don’t be afraid to take advice. There’s always something new to learn.

Don’t let the fear of striking out hold you back.

(Ty) Cobb is a prick. But he sure can hit. God Almighty, that man can hit.

Love the game of baseball and baseball will love you.

Wealth is always attracted, never pursued.

The only real game, I think, in the world is baseball.

Let me show you how it’s done, Loser!

Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. To these I commit my day. If I succeed, I will give thanks. If I fail, I will seek his grace. And then, when this day is done, I will place my head on my pillow and rest.

You have to work the crowd.

I have a thing where if I’m not in control, I feel the whole world is about to collapse.

The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves.

My message is simple: take control of your life.

The private control of credit is the modern form of slavery.

Yes, it’s a man’s world, but that’s all right because they’re making a total mess of it. We’re chipping away at their control, taking the parts we want. Some women think it’s a difficult task, but it’s not.

Always have the situation under control, even if losing. Never betray an inward sense of defeat.
