What's Tough Is Being Good Every Day.

Baseball Is A Game, Yes. It Is Also A Business.

I Remember The Last Season I Played. I Went Home After A Ballgame One Day, Lay Down On My Bed, And Tears Came To My Eyes. How Can You Explain That? It's Like Crying For Your Mother After She's Gone. You Cry Because You Love Her. I Cried, I Guess, Because I Loved Baseball, And I Knew I Had To Leave It.

I Don't Compare 'em, I Just Catch 'em.

The Catch Off Bobby Morgan (a Backhanded Grab Of The Brooklyn Dodger's Line Drive In September 1951 At Ebbets Field) In Brooklyn Was The Best Catch I Ever Made. Jackie Robinson And (giants Manager) Leo Durocher Were The First People I Saw When I Opened My Eyes

I Don't Know What Joe (dimaggio) Wanted (in Regards To Being Called 'the Greatest Living Ballplayer'), But I Don't Have A Problem, If He Wanted To Do That. He Was My Hero. Joe Was The Best All-around Player. Joe Was The Best. I Only Played Against Him Once, In The '51 Series.
