More quotes by Hank Aaron
You got to play a hundred and fifty games a year, so pick your spots. You can miss two games a month so pick the days you're gonna be hurt, or you're gonna rest or you're gonna have a drink or two. The rest of the time, be on that field.
Hank Aaron
I am very proud to be an American. This country has so much potential, I'd just like to see things better, or whatever, and I think it will be.

Hank Aaron

Hank Aaron
Roger Maris lost his hair the season he hit sixty-one, I still have all my hair, but when it's over, I'm going home to Mobile and fish for a long time.
Hank Aaron
Failure will never stand int he way of success if you learn from it.
Hank Aaron
I think what separates a superstar from the average ballplayer is that he concentrates just a little bit longer.
Hank Aaron
The pitcher has got only a ball. I've got a bat. So the percentage in weapons is in my favor and I let the fellow with the ball do the fretting.
Hank Aaron
You can only milk a cow so long, then you're left holding the pail.
Hank Aaron
Whatever we do, make sure we clean up baseball.
Hank Aaron
Failure is a part of success. There is no such thing as a bed of roses all your life. But failure will never stand in the way of success if you learn from it.
Hank Aaron
You may not think you're going to make it. You may want to quit. But if you keep your eye on the ball, you can accomplish anything.
Hank Aaron
