That smell of freshly cut grass makes me think of Friday night football in high school. The smell of popcorn and cigar smoke reminds me of the stadium. The cutting of the grass reminds me of the August practice.
I got an offer in 1992 to buy a major-league team. I turned down the offer because I don’t want my love of the game to involve business.
I want to get within myself and write. I really, really want to write.
What I do is so this world will know that it will not change me.
Time is on the side of all things good.
I’d like to think a baseball picture is somewhere in my future.
You see in all my life I’ve never found what I couldn’t resist, what I couldn’t turn down. I could walk away from anyone I ever knew, but I can’t walk away from you.
If I have any talent at all it’s from God, and my mom, who was on Capitol Records also.
No matter what you say you might do, you never really know until you’re in the moment. Every situation is so different.
People aren’t always themselves. They’re always holding back something.
Dreams can come true with God’s great angels like you.
But you’ve got to be tough when consumed by desire, cause it’s not enough just to stand outside the fire.
I’d love to play a villain in a movie, the kind of bad guy you would never think of me being able to play. Like most people, I have a darker side I’d like to explore onscreen.
What comes from a book is knowledge. What comes from the heart is wisdom.
Our future is not unpredictable, our future is simply the result of choices we have made.
The guys have told me not to quit my day job.
And now, I’m glad I didn’t know the way it all would end, the way it all would go. Our lives are better left to chance, I could’ve missed the pain, but I’d have had to miss the Dance...
Any time I’m in a moving thing, like an airplane, I’m usually asleep before we even get on our way.
Someday in heaven, when the angels all sing, well, these rags that I’m wearing will be fit for a king.
Whatever I do, I hope it’s quality, I hope it’s something that’s class.
