More quotes by Mark McGwire
I care deeply about anyone who listens to my music. That's a sacred connection between the artist and the person who appreciates what you do - it's beyond words how meaningful that is. But I'm not going to stifle myself from trying new things because I feel like people that are already into my stuff might not like it.

Some of the longest home runs I've hit, I didn't actually realize they were going that far. Everyone says, 'What does it feel like to hit the ball that far?' Actually, there's no feeling at all. I know when the ball meets the bat whether or not it's left the park. It's a nice easy thing.

What he (Sammy Sosa) and I have been doing is fantastic. What we've done nobody in the game has done for thirty-seven years. I'm pretty happy with the way things have been going.
Mark McGwire
I've been thinking about the record since I reached the fifty plateau. But you think about it and then you let it go because you can't waste many brain cells on hours thinking about it.

Once and for all, I did not use steroids or any other illegal substance.
Mark McGwire
When people put my name next to (Babe) Ruth's name it still blows me away. I'm still in awe.
Mark McGwire
The mind is a powerful thing and most people don't use it properly.
Mark McGwire
This is a great thing that's happening in baseball. We don't know if it will ever happen again.

Sammy Sosa's a September player, so you have to watch out for him. It's crunch time, time to make history.

Do you want to know the truth, or see me hit a few dingers?
