In Order To Excel, You Must Be

I'm A Very Lucky Guy. I Had So Many People Help Me Over The Years That I Never Had Many Problems. If I Had A Problem, I Could Sit Down With Someone And They Would Explain The Problem To Me, And The Problem Become Like A Baseball Game

What's Tough Is Being Good Every Day.

In 1950, When The Giants Signed Me, They Gave Me $15,000. I Bought A 1950 Mercury. I Couldn't Drive, But I Had It In The Parking Lot There, And Everybody That Could Drive Would Drive The Car. So It Was Like A Community Thing

I Was A Baseball Player, I Taught Baseball, And All Of A Sudden I Was In The Business World. Now I Used The Baseball World To Talk About Their Product. Not Too Much, Just Enough To Keep Going. Just Be Yourself And You'll Never Have A Problem. That's What I Did.

I Always Enjoyed Playing Ball, And It Didn't Matter To Me Whether I Played With White Kids Or Black. I Never Understood Why An Issue Was Made Of Who I Played With, And I Never Felt Comfortable, When I Grew Up, Telling Other People How To Act
