All ballplayers should quit when it starts to feel as if all the baselines run uphill.

I want to thank the good lord for making me a yankee

There is always some kid who may be seeing me for the first time. I owe him my best.

I played my best everyday. You never know when someone may be seeing you play for the first time.

If you keep thinking about what you want to do or what you hope will happen, you don't do it, and it won't happen.

A person always doing his or her best becomes a natural leader, just by example.

Read about your case of amnesia. Must be a new brand.

I've never heard a crowd boo a homer, but I've heard plenty of boos after a strikeout.

What the hell has (Herbert) Hoover got to do with it? Anyway, I had a better year than he did.

I said I'm going to hit the next one right over the flagpole. God must have been with me.

Each strikeout brings me closer to my next homerun.

Let me show you how it's done... Loser!

I thank heaven we have had baseball in this world... the kids... our national pastime.

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

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

Love the game of baseball and baseball will love you.

Every Strike is one step closer to a Home Run

What do I think about when I strike out? I think about hitting home runs.

I'd play for half my salary if I could hit in this dump (Wrigley Field) all the time.
