Even if I'm hormonal and I feel like I've got a couple pounds of water weight, I will never starve myself, I will never, ever go on a diet.
I started dieting. I dieted, dieted, dieted and tried all the diets and I would lose and then I would go back to normal eating and would put it on and then some.
Dreams do come true, even for someone who couldn't speak English and never had a music lesson or much of an education.
But what I'd really like to tell you is I never dreamed of being in the Hall of Fame. Standing here with all these great players was beyond any of my dreams.
I had dreams of catching the ball for the final out in the World Series and being mobbed by my teammates. Well, I guess all my dreams didn't come true.
I can't even explain to you how terrible that feels, that I equate dating a woman with punishment, shame, guilt, disappointment, reproach, reprimand, persecution. It's a nightmare.
People say, 'Just say who you're dating. Then people will stop being so ravenous about it.' It's like, No they won't! They'll ask for specifics.
Salsa, classic rock, soul music, jazz... all of that was a part of my education in making hip-hop music.
My big chip is that I never had an education. I wanted my children to get one so they didn't fall into the same trap as me.
When you have a father and a mother who work all their lives so you can have an education and build your body - it's a blessing.
It's hard to say, 'I don't believe in God.' I would love to know if God exists. But it's a very difficult thing for me to believe.
But I think it's up to a local congregation to determine whether or not a marriage should be blessed of God. And it shouldn't be up to the government.
The Jesuits I know who have died and all their lives were great teachers, they're the least remembered people.
I can turn on some jazz guitarist, and he won't do a thing for me, if he's not playing electrically. But Jeff Beck's great to listen to.
I don't really rate press conferences. It's not as though I leave the room fist-pumping my way down the corridor after a good one.
My worst days are still pretty good days. That's something I might lose in the moment sometimes, but I have a pretty good grasp of it.
In 83 I thought we were going to go all the way. We had Roy Smalley, and Steve King, and good players.
I try to be a good human being and keep up with what's going on in the world by reading and staying in touch with the current events.
He's not anybody's clone. He's Ken Griffey, Jr. As long as he continues to remind himself of that, he's going to be a very good player.
Good pitchers, after a tough outing, bounce back. Real good pitchers don't let too many poor games get in there.
If you're equally good as this Latin player, guess who's going to get sent home? I know a lot of players that are home now can outplay a lot of these guys.
