My workout was running down fly balls, stealing a base, or running for my life on the football field.

If I miss anything about the sport, it's the camaraderie of old teammates.

I was always active - I went from baseball to football. I didn't have time to work out.

I have no problem with my hips - I can still do the things that I used to do. I can run, I'm just not the fastest person on the field anymore.

So, baseball is probably more physical of the two mentally.

If you have four years to complete your college education, do it.

Back before I injured my hip, I thought going to the gym was for wimps.

It is better to give a lick than receive one.

Football is easy if you're crazy as hell.

I am my own person. What I'm doing, I'm happy with it. I'm doing what I want to.

I am a firm believer in if you can't get it the old fashioned way, you don't need it.

It is better to give a lick than receive one. If anybody got in my way, I tried to run right through them.

The only people I know getting in high places by running their mouth are politicians.

I'll never worry about not being successful. I'll just take it one day at a time, one season at a time. And play as hard as I can.

Don't put off until tomorrow the loving words you can say today.

Don't run too fast through life. You only have one.

Set your goals high, and don't stop till you get there.

The Mets has come along slow, but fast!

Sure I played, did you think I was born at the age of 70 sitting in a dugout trying to manage guys like you?
