I think everyone needs to be a role model, period.

I don't know what you guys say, but at home, life is way different from baseball.

I don't want to be a Major League coach.

My life is in shambles. It is crazy. It couldn't get any crazier. I'm just trying to stay sane.

Every pitcher can beat you, it doesn't matter how good you are.

Losing dad (Bobby Bonds) was the worst thing in the world.

It's not the name that makes the player. It's the player.

There is nothing better than walking out and hitting a home run.

Sometimes I surprise my own damn self.

I like to be against the odds.

I was born to hit a baseball. I can hit a baseball.

I don't ever remember having any bad times here in Pittsburgh.

I never stop looking for things to try and make myself better.

There are not too many rich black people in this world.

I'm a very private person. My life story isn't for everybody.

Baseball is just my job.

I don't know what my future is.

My career is an open book, but my life is not.

I'm clean, I've always been clean.
