Pitching is the art of instilling fear.

A guy that throws what he intends to throw, that's the definition of a good pitcher.

I can't believe that Babe Ruth was a better player than Willie Mays. (Babe) Ruth is to baseball what Arnold Palmer is to golf. He got the game moving. But I can't believe he could run as well as (Willie) Mays, and I can't believe he was any better an outfielder.

I don't think I've ever seen anybody with quicker hands than Soriano.

If I could straighten it out (his golf swing), I'd be pitching at Dodger Stadium tonight.

It's better to throw a theoretically poorer pitch whole-heartedly, than to throw the so-called right pitch with feeling of doubt-doubt that's it's right, or doubt that you can make it behave well at that moment. You've got to feel sure you're doing the right thing-sure that you want to throw the pitch you're going to throw.

He's the strangest hitter in baseball. Figure him out one way and he'll kill you another.

I can't picture people talking about me 50 years from now.

Show me a guy who can't pitch inside and I'll show you a loser.

The game has a cleanness. If you do a good job, the numbers say so. You don't have to ask anyone or play politics. You don't have to wait for the reviews.

If there was any magic formula, it was getting to pitch every fourth day.
