Quotes of 1991

Quotes taken from the authors in 1991

As long as I've got a chance to beat you I'm going to take it.

God watches over drunks and third baseman.

Some guys are admired for coming to play, as the saying goes. I prefer those who come to kill.

There are only five things you can do in baseball - run, throw, catch, hit and hit with power.

Give me some scratching, diving, hungry ballplayers who come to kill you.

If you can't explain it, how can you take credit for it?

They used to say, 'If we find a good black player, we'll sign him.' They was lying.

You make 'em, I amuse 'em.

I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.

The world doesn't make any heroes anymore.

A solitary laugh is often a laugh of superiority.

If you have abandoned one faith, do not abandon all faith. There is always an alternative to the faith we lose. Or is it the same faith under another mask?

No one ever taught me and I can't teach anyone. If you can't explain it, how can you take credit for it?

Every football player knows when his time is up.

A professional player is smarter than a college man. He uses his noodle. He knows what to do and when to do it. He rarely goes up in the air as is the case with most of our college players when they get in a tight place.
