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

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.

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!

If it wasn’t for baseball, I’d be in either the penitentiary or the cemetery.

You know this baseball game of ours comes up from the youth – that means the boys. And after you’ve been a boy, and grow up to know how to play ball, then you come to the boys you see representing themselves today in our national pastime.

Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.

If you want to change for the better, it’s important you to start looking at the people close to you. 

If I changed, it was for the better.

One year can change the courage of your entire life. Patience & hard work is key. 

Only those who go their own way cannot be overtaken by anyone.

Look at your dreams as something being packaged and made its way to you.

I believe that you control your destiny, that you can be what you want to be.

When once your point of view is changed, the very thing which was so damning becomes a clue to the truth.

Choose rather to be strong of soul than strong of body.
