George Herman quotes:

You know this baseball game of ours comes up from the youth. That means the boys. And after you've been a boy, and grow up to know how to play ball, then you come to the boys you see representing themselves today in our national pastime.

You're an actor, are you? Well, all that means is: you are irresponsible, irrational, romantic, and incapable of handling an adult emotion or a universal concept without first reducing it to something personal, material, sensational - and probably sexual!

I'd give a year of my life if I could hit a homerun on opening day of this great new park.

It's hard to beat a person who never gives up.

I know, but I had a better year than Hoover.

Pitching just felt like the most natural thing in the world.

You know how bad my voice sounds - well it feels just as bad.

I've never heard a crowd boo a homer, but I've heard plenty of boos after a strikeout.

You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, the club won't be worth a dime.

To my sick little pal. I will try to knock you another homer, maybe two today.

I'll win more games playing everyday in the outfield than I will pitching every fourth day.
