I'm always writing at night - things I would change, things I would do differently. When I write a note, it sticks in my head differently.
I'm the same guy I've always been. I'm the same guy now as when I was hitting 50 home runs. I don't change.
I hope that people learn from my mistake and I hope that the fans forgive me.
Thanks to all the fans from Detroit and Philly who are recognizing what type of player I am, and I hope they keep supporting the Sixers.
Men will confess to treason, murder, arson, false teeth, or a wig. How many of them will own up to a lack of humor?
The thing that always strikes me is how much power one person has. Everybody has so much power to help and to change if they just exercise it and get after it.
You worked every day to earn what's on the table, literally. It was a week-to-week thing. And I wouldn't change it. I would not change it for anything.
I was a little different. I still say I'm a little different, because success to me is not having the most money, or having the biggest car or the biggest house.
They're still advertising the added health-giving advantages of vitamins in your daily diet, although it has long since been shown that you'd be better off eating Smarties.
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.
With my biology degree, I got this job at an environmental lab. We tested sewage runoff, we tested chemical warfare waste runoff. It's a job I'll never do again and I would never wish upon anybody.
I honor God that much in the way I play. That's why I never believe in getting tired. I don't even know what that word means.
I believe that everything you work at and want in life is a great challenge.
The overwhelming majority of Americans are possessed of two great qualities a sense of humor and a sense of proportion.
I think we have a great track record on being relevant, on identifying consumer trends, needs and wants.
Rugby is great. The players don't wear helmets or padding; they just beat the living daylights out of each other and then go for a beer. I love that.
I have great confidence in Rick Caruso's unique qualifications and his ability to lead a successful bid for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
I'm trying to take all the media attention with a grain of salt. It is nice, but you are never as great as people say you are. And you're never as bad as others say you are.
I think my parents did a great job of reminding me that I wasn't as big a deal as maybe I thought I was at times.
You never know who will win and I think that is the great thing about this league (as a player) because it gives you a lot of hope that this could be your year.
