It's really weird to be taken seriously for what you're wearing. It makes me want to wear a uniform.

I just love putting on the uniform; it's what I have done since I was 6 or 7 years old. It's the life I know. If I didn't love the life of baseball, I wouldn't work out like I do every winter.

I'd rather play a double-header than speak at a banquet, and if I went to Wrigley Field knowing I had to be somewhere two hours after the game, it would bother me all day.

So I say keep yelling and hustling every minute you're in uniform.

Full-face helmets look stupid.

I was a Marine for 41 years, and it wasn't long enough. We enjoy putting on that uniform.

I like hats that make the heart beat faster.
