Quotes of 1963

Quotes taken from the authors in 1963

People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring.

Rogers Hornsby

I don't like to sound egotistical, but every time I stepped up to the plate with a bat in my hands, I couldn't help but feel sorry for the pitcher.

Rogers Hornsby

I've never been a yes man.

Rogers Hornsby

Now the advantage is all with the hitters.

Rogers Hornsby

To be a good hitter you've got to do one thing - get a good ball to hit.

Rogers Hornsby

If I could have come in for $10m, I would have done that. I've been pretty smart with my money. I'm playing because I want to play this game here - I want the opportunity.

Karl Malone

You take the good with the bad and try not to listen to everything said about you because you know it's not good.

Karl Malone

For me to be here tonight, everything had to be perfect. I had to get drafted by Utah, had to play with a point guard like John Stockton, and had to be coached by Jerry Sloan and Frank Layden.

Karl Malone

Somebody tell the damn players to start playing like old school.

Karl Malone

They changed the floor back to old school. They changed the uniform back to old school. Somebody tell the damn players to start playing like old school.

Karl Malone

I want to be a writer you can always depend on for a good read during your vacation, during your flight, during a time in your life when you want to forget the world around you.

Jeff Abbott

I do think Austin is a great town for writers; we have a lot of them here. But I grew up in Austin, and so I didn't move here because it was a creative mecca; I was just lucky to live here.

Jeff Abbott

No one forces me, or any other writer, to sell a film option on the books. If you don't want to run the risk that the filmmakers may adapt your work in a way you don't like, then you don't sell the option. You know when you sell it that they will have to make some changes, just because film and TV are different media than books.

Jeff Abbott

The nicest notes I've received from readers are those that tell me I've gotten them back into reading for entertainment. For me, there is no greater compliment.

Jeff Abbott

I outline in some detail, but even after the outline is done I often get a new idea that is an improvement, so the outline is a living, breathing thing as well. I also re-outline when I'm two-thirds done, to be sure that there is an emotional payoff from all the plot lines and to be sure the story is as tight as it can be.

Jeff Abbott

I'm tired of people questioning me because of my age. If you looked at my numbers and watched me throw and covered my birthdate, would age be an issue?

Randy Johnson

I threw a lot of balls and walked a lot of batters. Not something I'm proud of, but something I learned from.

Randy Johnson

I expect to win. I've never been content with anything I've ever done.

Randy Johnson

The word 'potential' used to hang over me like a cloud.

Randy Johnson

Tiger Woods, Larry Bird, Wayne Gretzky, a pitcher just before a game, I would imagine they all have nervous energy. But as you perform, the nervous energy dissipates and you start to relax and you start to do what you do best.

Randy Johnson
