Baseball is the life.

You have to go understand that life and baseball is littered with all kinds of obstacles and problems along the way. You have to learn how to overcome them to be successful in life.

To me, baseball has always been a reflection of life. Like life, it adjusts. It survives everything.

Baseball's my life.

A pitcher has to look at the hitter as his mortal enemy.

The beautiful thing about baseball is that anything can happen. It's like life in that way. As soon as you think you have it all figured out, something happens that makes you realize - you know nothing. The only thing that's guaranteed is that it will be an exciting ride.

The greatest challenge I think is adjusting to not playing baseball. The reason for that is I had to come out of baseball and come into the business world, not being a college graduate, not being educated to come into the business world the way I should have.

Life is made up of challenges that cannot be solved but only accepted.

Baseball is more than a game. It's like life played out on a field.

Life is challenging but I'm always up for a challenge.
