I'm not one to put a lot of pressure on myself.

When you get old and play every day like I did, it's hard. Hard on your body. You start to get sore. You gain weight. But that makes me work harder, be stronger in my mind, and show I can still play.

I just try to do my best every at-bat. That's what I plan to do.

I am a big one for subtlety and empathy. My dad was softly spoken and didn't carry his honours and accomplishments for everyone to see.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.

A teacher must believe in the value and interest of his subject as a doctor believes in health.
