- "It's like deja-vu all over again"
- "It ain't the heat; it's the humility"
- "Baseball is 90 percent mental -- the other half is physical"
- " I never said most of the things I said... Take it with a grin of salt"
- "If you don't know where you're going, you might end up some place else"
- "He hits from both sides of the plate. He's amphibious"
- "You can observe a lot by watching"
- "The future ain't what it used to be"
- "Never answer an anonymous letter"
- "When you come to a fork in the road, take it"
- "I always thought that record would stand until it was broken"
- "If the world was perfect, it wouldn't be"
- "Always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't go to yours"
